KS1 Seasonal Changes Class Assembly Script | Updated for 2026-27

Bring one of KS1’s most engaging science topics to life with this fun, interactive and curriculum-linked class assembly.

When a group of curious children begins to notice changes in their school garden, they set off on an exciting journey through the four seasons. Guided by a friendly gardener and four lively seasonal characters, they explore how spring, summer, autumn and winter each bring different weather, daylight, plants, animals and activities. As they follow clues around the garden, they discover that seasonal changes happen in a repeating cycle and that every season has something special to offer.

Designed specifically for Key Stage 1, this ready-to-perform assembly combines exciting storytelling with engaging scientific learning, helping children understand seasonal changes while encouraging careful observation of the natural world.
