Assemblies

Each week we hold our Pride Award Assembly as well as whole school assembly where we focus on our PSHE themes, British Values, Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural values and Religious Education. Each week we also have our ‘Picture News’ assemblies where we have the opportunity to discuss current issues from around the world.

We know that children see stories in the news they are curious or confused about. This can sometimes be tricky to explain. That’s why Picture News exists. ‘Picture News’ assemblies help to show the world around them in a child-friendly way. Picture News finds the positives in current affairs by turning world events into learning opportunities.

Reading Raffle

Each time a child reads at home and parents/carers complete their reading record they are given a raffle ticket which is entered into their class pot. The tickets are then entered into a prize draw which is drawn during assembly to choose a book from the book vending machine.

Each week, members of staff lead our children in an assembly, discussing key topic areas relevant to children of today. We enjoy a range of assemblies from curriculum topics, to safety, to the world around us to common interests – including visitors from Team GB, PCSOs and others.
