This assembly would suit both Primary and Secondary students. It would be useful after a bullying spate. Pupils write and take part in the roleplays that can form the central part of the assembly It makes the point that reconciliation is based on the premise that if we want forgiveness then we must offer it to others and this is a normal part of any relationship. The assembly can also be used without the roleplays so very adaptable. It is structured as follows: Why is reconciliation important? Why don’t we forgive one another? How can we make up after quarreling?

(See You Tube) * TALKS Introduction To Assembly In 1950 C. S. Lewis wrote The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is a fantasy novel for children. Most of the novel is set in Narnia, a land of talking animals and mythical creatures that is ruled by the evil White Witch. In the frame story, four English children are relocated to a large, old country house following a wartime evacuation. The youngest, Lucy, visits Narnia three times via the magic of a wardrobe in a spare room. Lucy’s three siblings are with her on her third visit to Narnia. In Narnia, the siblings seem fit to fulfill an old prophecy and find themselves adventuring to save Narnia and their own lives. The lion Aslan gives his life to save one of the children; he later rises from the dead……… Who Was C. S. Lewis and Why Did He Write This Book? Clive Staples Lewis (29 November 1898 – 22 November 1963) was a British writer and lay theologian. He held academic positions in English literature at both Oxford University (Magdalen College, 1925–1954) and Cambridge University (Magdalene College, 1954–1963). He is best known for his works of fiction, especially The Screwtape Letters, The Chronicles of Narnia, and The Space Trilogy According to Lewis’s memoir Surprised by Joy, he was baptised in the Church of Ireland, but fell away from his faith during adolescence. Lewis returned to Anglicanism at the age of 32, owing to the influence of Tolkien and other friends, and he became an “ordinary layman of the Church of England”.[2] Lewis’s faith profoundly affected his work, and his wartime radio broadcasts on the subject of Christianity brought him wide praise. Lewis wrote more than 30 books[3] which have been translated into more than 30 languages and have sold millions of copies. Lewis wrote the book for (and dedicated it to) his goddaughter, Lucy Barfield. She was the daughter of Owen Barfield, Lewis’s friend, teacher, adviser, and trustee.[4] In 2003, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe was ranked ninth on the BBC’s The Big Read poll.[5] Time magazine included the novel in its list of the 100 Best Young-Adult Books of All Time.[6] Check out my blog: brighterwindows.blogspot.com for further inspiration.; e.g. A Lenten Journey in 2020, Should We Give Up Choc for Lent?

‘Judge not according to appearance’ JOHN 7 V24 This is an assembly that was designed for Secondary pupils but would also suit older primary students. For music I recommend Republica: ‘Drop Dead Gorgeous’ and a few other more recent numbers- see PP I have also included links to relevant stories and short films that you can include to make it a longer assembly. I think it is a great confidence booster and you could easily link the Greek masks on the title slide with the selfie craze! It is the perfect antidote to the selfie craze! It is also the perfect antidote to abuses of social media websites and trolling! Please leave me some feedback as to how you use it!

Here you are! Ready to go! I have linked Pope Francis to St Francis so this assembly can be used for either. All you need is answers to two questions- (1) What is Francis patron saint of? St. Francis of Assisi, born in Umbria in 1181, was the founder of the Franciscan Order. He died on October 4, 1226 at the age of 45. Francis is considered the founder of all Franciscan Orders and the patron saint of ecologists and merchants. (2) Who was he? St Francis of Assisi: Go and Rebuild my Church HD film on You Tube or base talk on this:St. Francis of Assisi abandoned a life of luxury for a life devoted to Christianity after reportedly hearing the voice of God, who commanded him to rebuild the Christian church and live in poverty. He is the patron saint for ecologists. Born in Italy circa 1181, St. Francis of Assisi was renowned for drinking and partying in his youth. After fighting in a battle between Assisi and Perugia, Francis was captured and imprisoned for ransom. He spent nearly a year in prison—awaiting his father's payment—and, according to legend, began receiving visions from God. After his release from prison, Francis heard the voice of Christ, who told him to repair the Christian Church and live a life of poverty. Consequently, he abandoned his life of luxury and became a devotee of the faith, his reputation spreading all over the Christian world. Later in life, Francis reportedly received a vision that left him with the stigmata of Christ—marks resembling the wounds Jesus Christ suffered when he was crucified—making Francis the first person to receive such holy wounds. He was canonized as a saint on July 16, 1228. Today, St. Francis of Assisi has had a lasting resonance with millions of followers across the globe.

Materialism still unfortunately very much an evil of our society today. Personally I think every school year should include an assembly on this topic. As of January 2018 it is the only TES assembly on Materialism! **It covers the following; ** 1. What is materialism? 2. What is the problem with materialism? 3. What is the solution to materialism? It is aimed at Secondary school children but can be adapted to Primary children or used in an RE lesson. It includes the following: Suggested songs: the Flying Lizards 1979:Money That’s What I want Others could be Madonna’s ‘Material Girl’ , Spice Girls ‘Tell You What I Want’ or Lennon’s ‘Imagine’. Video: an extract from ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ (Clean) to show the destructive powers of money on character. A Bible reading Prayer Current research stats: an extract from the ‘Guardian’ of last year-2017. This is the beginning of a realisation that: if E= money then we don’t get to M C squared =happiness. Final thought Call to action Clearly you can easily adapt this assembly to the post-Christmas period or your own requirements; e.g. stealing/lying. Tell me what you use and why you chose this topic for an assembly. Any problems or queries please email me directly. Positive feedback telling me how you used or adapted this assembly would be really nice!

According to Hunt: “I painted the picture with what I thought, unworthy though I was, to be by Divine command, and not simply as a good Subject.”[1] The door in the painting has no handle, and can therefore be opened only from the inside, representing "the obstinately shut mind& Please leave me a review or feedback telling me how you used this resource and why

He is usually depicted as having two faces, since he looks to the future and to the past. It is conventionally thought that the month of January is named for Janus (Ianuarius),[ but according to ancient Roman farmers’ almanacs Juno was the tutelary deity of the month Janus presided over the beginning and ending of conflict, and hence war and peace. The doors of his temple were open in time of war, and closed to mark the peace. As a god of transitions, he had functions pertaining to birth and to journeys and exchange, and in his association with Portunus, a similar harbor and gateway god, he was concerned with travelling, trading and shipping ** ** Any way whatever you do, I hope 2018/9 is a good year for you!
