St George Assembly Presentation

A school assembly PowerPoint about St George and the Dragon.

This PowerPoint retells the legend of St George and the Dragon to help pupils explore the theme of courage. It introduces St George as both a historical Roman soldier and a symbol of standing up for justice, then recounts the famous story in which he bravely confronts and defeats a dragon to save a princess and protect a terrified town. The assembly highlights how the tale has become a long-lasting symbol of good triumphing over evil and links it with the real St George, whose greatest courage was speaking out against injustice. It encourages students to reflect on their own experiences of bravery, recognise everyday acts of courage, and consider the ‘dragons’ they may need to face. The presentation also explains the St George’s Cross and how St George’s Day is celebrated across England, reinforcing values of bravery, kindness, and doing what is right.
