Miss Ashley’s Assemblies revolve around sharing a story book, discussing the themes, issues and useful strategies.

There are opportunities for personal and collective reflection and a follow up task or challenge.

Previous themes of our Head Teacher Assemblies have aimed to support children’s mental and emotional well being this half term and our school value of Resilience as we settle back into school in the autumn term.

Stories and books shared have included:

The Head teacher has also shared the story- 'Troll Stinks' which had a focus on internet safety too.

Headteacher Assemblies have also revisited behaviour and our outstanding learning behaviours and making links to our school values of independence, ambition & self-belief.

We thought about what makes a good learner. We explored attitudes and behaviours we can develop that can make a difference to our learning.

Headteacher Assemblies have had a focus on friendship and kindness. We have thought about what makes a good friend and how simple acts of kindness can make a huge difference.

Previously we have looked at the book The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse by Charles Mackesy.

From this we then developed a Kindness board in every classroom to celebrate acts of kindness.
