School assemblies can be a terrific way to foster a sense of community and school pride. But if your students are going to miss class, you want to make sure the experience is worth it. These school assembly ideas will engage everyone, from kindergarten through high school.

Alumni Visit

Invite former students to come back and share their achievements or favorite school memories. This is especially fun during spirit week, when older alumni can share their experiences from their own time at your school.

Animal Visit

Local zoos often offer school assembly ideas, and they’ll bring animals for kids to see. You can also work with an animal shelter—ask them to bring some of their adoptable pets and share what the shelter does to help find their forever homes.

Anti-Bullying Assembly

Fight bullying behavior with a school assembly dedicated to the topic. Bring in a special speaker, show anti-bullying videos , or teach kids how to be upstanders in their school community.

Put together a curated collection of your students’ artwork, whether it’s been created at school or at home. Give everyone time during the school day to visit the “exhibits,” and let the artists stand by to answer questions about their work. (Consider adding a section for teacher-created artwork too!)

Raise money or awareness for your school or a favorite cause with a walk-athon, bike-athon, dance-athon, read-athon, math-a-thon , or other fun ongoing activity. The bigger the school, the longer you can keep the “a-thon” going!

Author or Artist Visit

Many authors are available for in-person or virtual school visits . Look for their websites or contact their publishers to find out more. Local artists also make terrific presenters at school assemblies, where they can lead students in creating their own masterpieces.

Awards Assembly

Don’t wait until the end of the year to celebrate success! Consider holding monthly, quarterly, or semester-end awards assemblies. Be creative in your awards and look for ways to recognize students who often fly under the radar.

Break a Record

What can your school set a record for? Longest paper chain? Most students jumping rope at once? Biggest ice cream sundae? Nothing brings kids together like a giant cooperative project for the record books!

Ask for community volunteers to come share their jobs with students. Set up booths around the gym and let kids go around to meet the visitors in person, or invite people to speak to the school as a whole.

Celebrate Special Months

School assembly celebrating LGBT+ History Month

Start Black History Month , Hispanic Heritage Month , Women’s History Month , Poetry Month, or other special months with a school assembly. Invite speakers to inspire your students as they get ready to celebrate that month’s topic or honorees.

Community Service

Service learning projects can be excellent school assembly ideas. Find lots of terrific student service ideas here , like setting up a school or community garden or working on a collaborative art project.

Whether it’s a chance for kids to hear their peers perform or a special performance from a local orchestra, choir, or other group, concerts make terrific school assembly ideas. Use the opportunity to introduce kids to kinds of music they might otherwise not listen to.

Cultural Performance

Invite local cultural groups to give a performance at your school. Expose kids to a variety of cultures through their songs, dances, theater, and more. Encourage teachers to pair this school assembly with classroom activities about the featured culture too.

Get the whole school together for a day of friendly competitions!  Check out our list of inclusive field day games and activities for all ages here.

Fundraiser Kickoff

Like it or not, fundraisers tend to be part of school life these days. Help yours succeed with a kickoff assembly that shows kids what you’re raising money for. When they know what they’re working toward, they’ll be more likely to participate. Find 50+ unique and effective fundraising ideas for schools here.

Healthy Living Fair

Create a series of stations for students to cycle through, learning about various healthy living topics from guest presenters. Think delicious nutritious recipes from a local chef, fun ways to get exercise from a local sports hero, mindfulness and stress management with a yoga instructor, and so on.

Your school is full of people with special skills and talents, and many of them would love the chance to teach others how to do their favorite activities. Teachers, staff, and even students can show each other how to knit, take better photos, perform magic, pull off basketball trick shots, and anything else they love.

Kindness Week Kickoff

Kindness Week takes place each February , but you don’t need to wait until then to kick-start kindness at your school! Hold a school-wide assembly using some of these ideas for teaching kids to show kindness and gratitude every day .

(Learn to) Dance Party

Get students up and moving by teaching them new dance moves! Teach the whole school how to line dance, or create some simple choreography for everyone to master as a “school dance.” You can also break students into smaller groups and have them make the rounds to learn a specific dance style (ballet, jazz, ballroom, etc.) from an expert. (Whenever you’re planning physical activities, ensure you’re considering ways to make them inclusive for students with mobility limitations.)

Lip-Sync Battle

Challenge each class or homeroom to create their own lip-sync battle routine. Then, battle it out in a school-wide assembly to find the ultimate winners.

Morning Assembly

Traditional morning assemblies have fallen by the wayside in most schools, but some administrators find they’re a terrific way to build school community. Learn how one principal starts each day with a 10-minute purposeful assembly that makes a real difference.

Outdoor Learning Day

Set aside a day that’s all about outside learning! Give teachers plenty of advance notice so they can plan activities that take advantage of time outside. (Be sure to set a rain date in case the weather doesn’t cooperate, and have plenty of sunscreen on hand if it does!)

This is one of those traditional school assembly ideas that kids continue to enjoy. Bring some fresh spirit to yours with one of these 40 pep rally ideas for kids of all ages .

Picnic Lunch

For one day only, have everyone eat lunch outside at the same time. It will be crazy chaos, but students can mix and mingle, getting to know each other outside of the classroom. This is especially important for kids who don’t get to participate in after-school activities on a regular basis.

Poetry Slam

Show kids the magic of written verse with a school-wide poetry slam. It takes some preparation in advance, but the results can be incredible. Learn how to hold your own poetry slam here.

Post-Testing Party

Everyone breathes a sigh of relief when testing weeks are finally over. Get the whole school in on the celebration. Even kids who weren’t taking tests deserve props for being quiet and respectful of those who were. Hold a dance party, ice cream sundae bar, or glow-up day to blow off some steam!

Principal Stunts

Surprise gestures and a willingness to step outside of the comfort zone can help administrators connect with their students, energize their staff, and even raise money for school fundraisers. Check out 10 of the best principal stunts from administrators who proved they can take one for the team.

Readers Theater

Ask teachers and their classes to prepare readers theater presentations. These require less prep and practice than a play or skit but are still engaging for others to watch and enjoy. Students create a script adapted from a story, then read it out loud to a group. But there’s no need for costumes, scenery, or props. Instead, the performance is all about the performer’s voices, facial expressions, and enthusiasm for their roles. Learn more about readers theater here.

Recycling Kickoff

Many schools are committing to going green by starting a recycling program or enhancing their existing one. A kickoff assembly is a great time to get everyone on board with the new habits. Show everyone when, where, how, and why they should recycle—consider holding a contest to see who can contribute the most!

Red Ribbon Week Kickoff

Red Ribbon Week is held each year from October 23 to October 31. It’s the largest drug-abuse prevention campaign in the country, targeting K-12 students. Try these Red Ribbon Week ideas to encourage students to make smart choices and live drug-free every day!

School Birthday Party

Hold a birthday party to celebrate your school’s founding! Decorate the halls or classrooms, give out balloons or party hats, and hand out cake (or healthy snacks). Gather everyone together to sing “Happy Birthday,” then share a video on social media of your celebration.

School Slideshow

This is an amazing idea for the end of a semester or school year. Assemble pictures you’ve collected, featuring as many students, teachers, and staff as possible. Add music to the presentation, and encourage students to show their enthusiasm when they see their class, events, or friends featured. Such a fun way to wrap up and create a sense of school community!

School Spirit Skits

Let students create and perform skits about their school, sharing their favorite things about their alma mater and maybe poking a little gentle fun at things too. (It goes without saying you’ll want to preview the skits first. You might also have teachers work with their classes to prepare skits, if you prefer a little more supervision in the process.)

Spelling Bee

Here’s another school assembly idea that’s been around for decades. Host a school-wide spelling bee, then send your winners on to regional competitions. You could even see one of your students compete at the Scripps National Spelling Bee !

Spirit Fashion Show

Dress up and show off your moves on the catwalk! Students and teachers can vote for their favorite displays of school pride. This one is a fun way to start or wrap up a school spirit week.

STEM demo at a school assembly

Contact your local science center to see if they do school STEM assemblies. Or ask your own science teachers to plan spectacular demos to get kids excited about science. Everyone loves a big elephant toothpaste display!

Student-Led Assembly

Tired of spending precious time coming up with assembly ideas? Let students do it instead! In fact, student-led assemblies are often more interesting and engaging for their peers. They’re more likely to dream up topics and events that other kids will enjoy, so let them take the reins. Learn more about student-led assemblies here.

Students vs. Faculty Competition

It’s always fun to watch students try to beat faculty at pretty much anything. Make it a kickball game, relay race, or even a trivia contest.

Talent Show

Put together a school talent show, and encourage both students and faculty to participate. You can make it a competition, or simply use the time to recognize some of the amazing abilities found around your school.

Trivia Contest

Create your own school trivia quiz on  Kahoot or another quiz app, then hold a school-wide trivia competition to see who really knows their school!

Table of Contents

Assembly Idea 1: Climate Change

Start your academic year with an assembly that educates students about climate change and its effects. Students can hear firsthand about the current U.S. government policies, ways to fight climate change locally, and global initiatives taking place to help protect the environment.

Your assembly can also feature a panel discussion with advocates, climate researchers, or local activists, providing their insight into the impacts of climate change and what actions we can take as a community to support environmentalism.

This assembly is a great way to arm your student body with meaningful knowledge and tools they can use to make a difference in our planet’s future!

Check out the Class Assembly Scripts we have written for each year group!

Assembly Idea 2: Fireworks Night/ The Gunpowder Plot

Fireworks Night or The Gunpowder Plot are great ideas for school assemblies! This assembly combines history and excitement as it recreates the infamous plot hatched by a group of English Catholics to blow up the House of Lords. Learning more about this famous historical event is an excellent opportunity for the students.

With a dramatic narration, re-enactment, and plenty of exploding sound effects, teachers and students alike can enjoy this creative approach to learning. A bonus is that students experience the thrill of fireworks during their school day!

Assembly Idea 3: The History Of Halloween

As we approach the end of October, why not use our school assembly time to explore the history of Halloween? We can look back to ancient Celtic and Christian celebrations that have evolved into the fun holiday we all enjoy today.

Students can learn about its origins while still having lots of fun—from sharing costumes and incorporating games into the assembly.

Exploring different cultures is an invaluable opportunity, and learning about the history of Halloween is a great way to do this. It will give members of our school community a newfound appreciation for what makes Halloween so unique.

Assembly Idea 4: The Meaning of Christmas

With decorations and festivities, the Christmas season offers children an opportunity to learn about this holiday’s history. At your school assembly, challenge students to think about the meaning of Christmas by discussing how it evolved in both a secular and spiritual context.

Bring in particular interactive elements such as carolling or special music that reinforces the importance of the holiday message that emphasises love, joy, hope, and peace.

You can also invite guest speakers with personal stories to share relevant to the theme of Christmas to help bring your points home. This assembly will foster powerful conversations and meaningful reflection on what makes Christmas and life exceptional and inspiring!

Assembly Idea 5: New Year Resolutions

A new school year brings a chance to set big goals, think about improving, and have fun! A New Year Resolution assembly idea makes it easy to get the whole school thinking, setting goals, and having a blast while doing it. Have an explanation of a New Year resolution and examples of some real answers from students. Encourage everyone to take part and make their own.

To make this interactive, you could allow students to share some of their resolutions in front of the school, motivating them to stick with those resolutions throughout the year. It’s also an excellent way for other students and staff to become inspired by each other’s ideas and advice.

What better way to kick off a fantastic academic year than with an inspirational new effort radiating throughout the school?

Assembly Idea 6: The Start of Spring

As the winter snow melts away and leaves new life in its wake, it’s time to celebrate the start of spring with an assembly idea that allows your student body to connect with nature! Planting a school garden or beautification project is a great way for students to get outside and create meaningful change.

Not only can this activity help with class unity, but it will also make the school more attractive and often more environmentally conscious. Incorporating special activities like an art mural project or light engineering challenge could provide a fun and educational experience for everyone involved.

By introducing the season of growth and renewal through an assembly focused on making nature-based changes, your student body can embody those feelings all year!

Assembly Idea 7: How To Beat Exam Stress

As the school year progresses and exams come around, it’s normal for some students to become overwhelmed with stress. An assembly focused on coping with exam stress can be a great way to remind everyone of how they can better manage their time and emotions during this busy time.

You can also give students a chance to practice breathing exercises, relaxation techniques, visualisation and goal-setting exercises that they can use during their exams.

Finally, emphasise the importance of taking breaks and getting enough rest during this period so your students can be in the best condition to tackle the challenges ahead!

Assembly Idea 8: Harvest Festival/ Food Banks

As the farming season approaches, host an assembly on food banks and how to give back to those in need. Talk about volunteering and donating to food banks during this time of year.

Have local food bank volunteer volunteers explain what they do and why it’s so crucial for people in the community to participate. You can also organise a food drive within the school or encourage students to volunteer with a local food bank.

By emphasising how everyone can make a difference in someone else’s life, your assembly will surely leave everyone feeling empowered and inspired!

Assembly Idea 9: Global Citizen

Encourage cultural understanding and awareness of our global community by hosting an assembly celebrating differences. Have a guest speaker or panel who can speak about their own culture and experiences living abroad.

You could also organise an interactive activity where students are asked to explore different cultures, such as trying new foods, listening to traditional music, and learning about other religions and customs.

This type of assembly would help open your student’s minds to our diverse and vibrant world while fostering a sense of appreciation for different cultures.

Assembly Idea 10: Children’s Mental Health Week

Mental health is an increasingly important topic, especially regarding children. Hosting an assembly honouring Children’s Mental Health week would raise awareness and support anyone struggling with mental health issues.

Invite guest speakers or experts who can talk about the importance of understanding and addressing mental health issues and how to seek help if needed.

This assembly could also focus on mindful breathing and relaxation exercises that children can practice at home or a creative outlet like art therapy during which students can express their feelings.

By providing this support, your student body will be better equipped with the resources to cope with mental health challenges.

Assembly Idea 11: Anti-Bullying Week

Bullying and cyberbullying are serious issues that can have a lasting impact on young people. Hosting an assembly to commemorate Anti-Bullying Week is one way to ensure your student body is informed about the importance of kindness and respect for others.

You could hold an interactive activity or workshop to help students role-play different scenarios where someone is being bullied so that they can practice responding positively.

By emphasising the importance of creating a safe, respectful learning environment for everyone, your assembly will help ensure that all students feel supported and respected.

Assembly Idea 12: World Book Day

Holding a special assembly to commemorate World Book Day is an excellent way to encourage students to read and explore literature. Invite authors, illustrators, librarians, or other book lovers who can discuss the importance of reading and how it has impacted their lives.

You can also organise a book drive within the school to donate books to those in need or provide students with the opportunity to discuss their favourite books and authors during an interactive activity.

Celebrating World Book Day can help foster a love of reading and writing amongst your student body!

Assembly Idea 13: Earth Day

Earth Day is celebrated annually on April 22nd, making it the perfect occasion for a classroom assembly.

You could also organise an activity or workshop where students are encouraged to devise creative solutions for reducing waste or conserving energy in their school and community.

By celebrating Earth Day, you can help your students become environmentally conscious citizens passionate about protecting our planet!

Assembly Idea 14: Lunch Hall Etiquette

Good manners and etiquette are essential for a respectful and welcoming learning environment. Hosting an assembly focused on lunch hall etiquette is one way to ensure that your student body understands the importance of being courteous while in the cafeteria.

Invite guests such as chefs, dietitians, or nutrition experts who can discuss proper behaviour when eating in the lunch hall. You can also hold a fun interactive activity or workshop to help students practice good manners at mealtime.

By emphasising the importance of being polite in the cafeteria, your assembly will help create a positive atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable!

Assembly Idea 15: Behaviour Management Expectations

Effects of poor behaviour can extend far beyond the classroom and have lasting impacts on students and their peers. Invite guest speakers trained in positive behaviour management to your assembly to discuss key strategies for managing challenging behaviours.

You could also allow students to role-play different scenarios where someone is exhibiting negative behaviour so that they can practice responding positively and effectively.

By emphasising the importance of respectful behaviour, your assembly will help create an inclusive learning environment for all students!

Assembly Idea 16: Financial Literacy

Financial literacy is an essential skill that students need to develop to become financially responsible adults. Invite financial experts or entrepreneurs who can speak about budgeting, saving, and investing.

You can also organise an interactive activity or workshop where students can practice creating a simple budget and deciding how to allocate their money.

By emphasising the importance of understanding financial concepts, your assembly will help equip your students with the knowledge they need to make informed financial decisions!

Assembly Idea 17: Anti-Bullying Week

Bullying is an issue that affects students in all grade levels. Celebrate Anti-Bullying Week with a classroom assembly to spread awareness about the lasting effects of bullying and how everyone can take a stand against it.

As global citizens, we must do our part to conserve energy. Hold a Switch Off Fortnight assembly to help your students become more conscious of how much electricity they use and its environmental impact.

Invite guest speakers who can discuss how small changes like switching off lights and unplugging appliances when not in use can make a big difference.

You can also organise interactive activities and workshops to help students learn about energy conservation and develop strategies for reducing their electricity usage.

By emphasising the importance of conserving energy, your assembly will help your students become environmentally responsible citizens!

Assembly Idea 19: Black History Month

Black History Month is a necessary time to celebrate the histories and achievements of black people in America. Invite guest speakers who can discuss the struggles and triumphs of African Americans throughout history, as well as their continued fight for equality and justice.

You could also organise activities or workshops to help students learn about influential black figures in American history or create a school-wide art project to commemorate and celebrate the accomplishments of black people.

By highlighting the importance of Black History Month, your assembly will help students gain a deeper understanding and appreciation for African Americans’ contributions to our society!

Assembly Idea 20: Sports Day

Sports Day is a great way to get students excited and involved in physical activities. Invite professional athletes or coaches from your local sports team to discuss the importance of leading an active lifestyle.

Assemblies are integral to the educational experience. They foster a sense of community, provide a platform for students to express themselves, and offer an opportunity to discuss important issues. They also help in instilling values like respect, empathy, and teamwork among students.

What topics are usually covered in school assemblies?

Topics can range widely depending on the age group and the school’s curriculum. They might include academic achievements, school announcements, cultural celebrations, discussions on social issues, or guest speaker presentations.

Are parents allowed to attend school assemblies?

This varies from school to school. Some schools encourage parental involvement and invite parents to certain assemblies, while others may limit attendance to staff and students. It’s best to check with your child’s school for their specific policy.

How can I make school assemblies more engaging?

Variety is key. Mix up the format – consider guest speakers, student-led presentations, interactive activities, and multimedia. Also, make sure the content is relevant and relatable to the students’ lives.

Data Visualization Ideas to Help Students Present Overwhelming Amounts of Data in Creative Ways

Data visualization is all about using visuals to make sense of data. Students need to pull the main points from their extensive research, and present them by story telling while being mindful of their classmates’ collective attention span.

As far as student assignments go, storytelling with data is a daunting task for students and teachers alike. To keep your audience interested, consider using a non linear presentation that presents key concepts in creative ways.

Inspire your class to be master data storytellers with the following data visualization ideas:

Pro tip: make your presentation as interactive as possible. Students have an attention span of two to three minutes per year of age. To keep minds from wandering off, include some interactive games or activities in the lesson. For example, if you conducted a lesson on the respiratory system, you could ask them to practice breathing techniques.

Maintain eye contact with your students, and you’ll get instant feedback on how interested they are in the interactive presentation.

presentation ideas for school assembly

James Handscombe offers his thoughts on how to make the most of your school assembly, and what it takes to keep your audience engaged…

Crafting a powerful assembly takes time. It involves writing 1,500 words in coherent sentences and structured paragraphs so that the listener, without aids to memory or concentration, is at least able to take away the key messages.

This, therefore, is the first characteristic of a powerful assembly – messages that are clearly communicated and rendered memorable.

That said, a great assembly does more than simply hammer home some key messages – it exemplifies the school ethos. It not only tells, but also shows. When sitting in a powerful assembly, you’ll hear described the aspirations of the community, but also see them lived.

“A great assembly does more than simply hammer home some key messages”

Exactly what characteristics the assembly has will thus depend on the ethos of the school in which you work. Using someone else’s assembly as inspiration is wise; downloading and delivering it as written, much less so.

The final characteristic of a great assembly springs from that idea of communicating an ethos. Every assembly is a teaching opportunity. Students should go away having learned something.

Show not tell

To achieve these ends, you can deploy:

  • personal anecdotes
  • high culture references
  • pop culture references
  • tales from history
  • stories of inspiring heroes

To tie it all together, you can draw on your own ruminations and reflections, the words of your foundational documents or the content of assemblies gone by. This is a team effort, of course, since building an ethos is the work of many speakers.

The idea of showing, rather than simply telling is an extraordinarily powerful one for an assembly writer. We encourage students to use their words cleverly and develop a wide vocabulary. Assemblies give them opportunities to see us doing the same ourselves.

“The idea of showing, rather than simply telling is an extraordinarily powerful one for an assembly writer”

Assemblies also remove us from our expertise pigeonholes. A maths teacher can endorse the interests of the history teacher. The English teacher can speak to the beauty of maths.

They allow us to communicate our humanity and tell tales of misspent youth, recount eccentric enthusiasms and share the words and music that make our fragile hearts beat faster.

In an assembly we can pass on the advice and life lessons we long for students to learn, but which simply won’t fit into the timetabled curriculum.

High and low

One of the most challenging decisions you’ll make is how to pitch your cultural allusions. Should you talk about autumn by invoking Axl Rose’s words on the cold ‘November Rain’, or by citing John Keats’ misty and far mellower ode?

My reflection on this is that assemblies are about learning, so we should expose them to things they don’t know. I like to aim just over their heads. Try for content that will be largely new to them, but which they may have at least heard of, dipped into or been intrigued by. This way, they should be looking up and lifted by what is offered.

This approach gives you the opportunity to stealthily drop popular culture references into your discussion with the same gravitas and respect you’d afford great writers from centuries past.

It emphasises that the students’ existing culture is valuable, and worthy of engagement and reflection. It also encourages them to listen out for your roguish tricks. They might just be listening carefully for the next sneaky Taylor Swift lyric, but at least they are listening.

Natural bias

Another challenge is that your cultural touchstones will spring from the minuscule part of human experience that is your life thus far.

On our own, none of us can ever be as culturally diverse as the schools we serve – a natural bias we would do well to monitor and take active steps to remedy.

“On our own, none of us can ever be as culturally diverse as the schools we serve”

Expressing your own character and sharing your culture with students is a real privilege of delivering an assembly, and one we shouldn’t be shy of (Paul Simon and JRR Tolkien are frequent visitors to my scripts).

However, we must also be careful not to give the impression that this is the only culture we’re interested in. Or worse, that this is the only culture that has value.

The poetry of Rabindranath Tagore; the novels of James Baldwin; the history of Sudan – all have an equal claim to time and space. Writing an assembly is an opportunity for us to learn something new ourselves, as well as teach.

Cross-referencing

When approached as a standalone presentation, however, even a truly brilliant assembly will lack power.

An assembly’s greatness comes from its place in a collection, which is why I believe assembly givers should also be listeners. The best cultural reference for an assembly is another assembly – ideally one given by someone else.

These cross-references allow assemblies to reinforce and build on each other. They turn ephemeral, individual pieces into a rich and evolving tapestry of shared understanding.

They can tap into and develop the ethos of the school, and turn a building into a community.

  • An assembly is made up of stories, references, a big picture ethos and take-home messages. Start with one and add the others in.
  • Your take-home message must be clear; structure the assembly to make it so.
  • You are exemplifying good writing for the students; spend time crafting your sentences and paragraphs.
  • Remember that an assembly is another opportunity for pupils to learn something, especially advice and life lessons that won’t fit into the timetabled curriculum.
  • Your assembly isn’t just what you say, but how you say it. Make sure you’re in touch with the school ethos and its aspirations
  • Take inspiration from all walks of life. This includes high culture, pop culture, tales from history, stories of inspiring heroes or warnings from the lives of villains. Ensure these sources are culturally diverse
  • Aim high with your content. Assemblies should expose pupils to things that are new to them, or which they may be somewhat familiar with and would like to explore further.
  • Have fun with your assemblies. Be your own, idiosyncratic self.

presentation ideas for school assembly

A 20-minute primary school assembly can be a wonderful time for both children and teachers. Young children have a real thirst for knowledge, and an endless fascination with the world around them which we, as teachers, need to nurture.

By providing a great start to the day, children can be inspired and motivated, while teachers can be given ideas and themes which they may want to develop in their own classrooms.

If you’re a headteacher, an assembly is a great chance not only to entertain and enthuse the children, but to prove that even though you are no longer in the classroom, you can still fascinate children and hold their attention with ease. It certainly gives you a great deal of ‘corridor credibility’ with teaching staff.

Start with just one word

Sometimes, I’d start an assembly very simply with just a word. ‘Impossible’, for example. “What does it mean?” I’d say. “Something you can’t do,” the children would reply. And then I’d show that it wasn’t necessarily so.

“By providing a great start to the day, children can be inspired and motivated”

After seating five teachers on a wooden gymnastics bench, I challenged a tiny infant pupil to lift up the bench. The children said it was impossible.

Then, to their great amusement, I put a car jack under one end of the bench and the infant pumped it up with ease. This led to a discussion on other amazing machines and how they work; the crane, for example, which was being used on a housing development opposite the school.

And once I’d shown how the impossible could become possible, more ideas quickly came to mind and provided assemblies for a whole week.

It was easy for a child to cut a hole in a sheet of paper that they could put their hand through, but could they cut a hole in a postcard that they could climb through? Impossible? Not at all.

And surely it was impossible for a sentence like ‘Tom, where Fred had had had had had had had had had had been the correct answer’ to make any sense at all? No, with the correct punctuation it was indeed possible.

Let others take the lead

Children themselves are an amazing resource for assemblies. Many of them will have a hobby or interest, and it only takes a little gentle persuasion for them to be willing to share it with everybody else.

Teachers and classroom assistants can usually be persuaded to do a turn as well. One of my classroom helpers was a dab hand at building Victorian-style dolls’ houses, and the children were fascinated to learn how she constructed all the tiny furniture for them.

“Children themselves are an amazing resource for assemblies”

Simple maths puzzle idea

An interesting assembly can be created from the simplest of ideas and with a minimal amount of preparation. Get a sheet of white A1 paper, a big pair of scissors and a glue stick and you’re ready to go.

Tell the children you’re going to show them an interesting mathematical puzzle. Cut four strips from the paper, each measuring about 60cm x 8cm.

Take the first strip, put a little glue on one end and paste it into a circle. Now say you’re going to push the scissors into the strip and cut all the way round the circle.

As you cut, ask the children what you’ll end up with. They will say, rightly of course, that you’ll end up with two separate loops, each about 4cm wide.

Next, take another strip, join the ends again, but just before you do so, give one end of the strip a half turn. Again cut all the way round the loop, and ask what you’ll end up with. The children will probably say two loops again. In fact, you end up with one very large loop.

Then take the third strip, and before gluing give one end a full turn. What do you end up with this time? Surprisingly, two linked rings. So what would happen if you gave the fourth strip a turn and a half? Or two turns?

Children can experiment with this in their classrooms, but in the meantime you could finish the assembly by telling them about the mathematician Mobius.

Mike Kent was a head teacher for 30 years. He is the co-author of 27 musical plays for primary schools and the writer of three books on education, including Amazing Assemblies for Primary Schools .

presentation ideas for school assembly

Robert Cann makes the case for why schools’ collective worship obligations need replacing with inclusive assemblies …

At Humanists UK, we believe assemblies are best when they bring school communities together by focusing on the values that unite everyone – regardless of their religion or belief.

To this end, we’ve been supporting Baroness Burt and Crispin Blunt MP, sponsors of the Education (Assemblies) Bill in the Lords and Commons respectively.

‘Broadly Christian’

Unearthing ancient laws that remain on the statute book long after their time can be an entertaining use of one’s time.

Despite the old wives’ tale, it definitely is illegal to shoot a Welshman with a longbow within Chester’s city walls (or indeed anywhere else), but you definitely must not enter the Houses of Parliament wearing a suit of armour, or you’ll be in breach of the Coming Armed to Parliament Act 1313.

There’s another outdated law, one dating from 1944, that requires every state school in England – including those without ‘religious character’ – to hold a daily act of collective religious worship.

Where schools are faith schools, this worship must be in line with the faith of the school. Where they’re not, it must be ‘broadly Christian’ in style.

This makes the UK the only sovereign state in the world to impose Christian worship in state schools as standard, which is a remarkable legal anomaly given our increasingly secular times.

Daily worship

Some readers might be rolling their eyes at this point. Your own school may have assemblies less frequently than every day, and perhaps without any sign of collective worship at all. Yet many schools continue to comply with this law, either in whole or in part.

“This makes the UK the only sovereign state in the world to impose Christian worship in state schools as standard”

A YouGov poll of parents taken last year found that 20% thought their child definitely took part in a daily act of collective worship, with 25% unsure. Fewer than half (47%) said such daily worship definitely did not take place.

Just because a law isn’t universally complied with, it doesn’t follow that reform is unnecessary. Indeed, the government indicated that if it was made aware of English schools breaching the requirement to carry out daily worship, they would be ‘investigated’ and ‘reminded of their duty on this matter’.

In schools where such daily acts do take place, those children who are withdrawn can, at best, be left twiddling their thumbs, and at worst, be ostracised from their peers as the structured school day starts without them.

No higher authority than the United Nations has got involved, with the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child having urged the UK to repeal its collective worship laws.

Inclusive assemblies

It’s therefore high time that things were brought up to date, which is where the Education (Assemblies) Bill comes into play.

The Bill proposes to remove the collective worship requirement in schools with no religious character. Instead, those schools will have to hold inclusive assemblies that are suitable for all children, regardless of their religion or belief.

These assemblies could, of course, include religious topics, but would lack the worship element.

Collective worship in faith schools would be left alone, though the Bill does specify that children who have been withdrawn from worship in faith schools must be provided with a meaningful educational alternative.

Socially important

A change in the law would be popular. The aforementioned YouGov poll further found that 60% of parents with school-age children oppose enforcement of the collective worship law, while just 24% are in favour.

Parents surveyed in 2019 ranked religious worship last among 13 possible assembly topics, with 29% thinking it appropriate, compared with 76% who opted for ‘the environment and nature’ and 74% choosing ‘equality and non-discrimination’.

“60% of parents with school-age children oppose enforcement of the collective worship law”

The Education (Assemblies) Bill would be both long overdue, and a socially important new law. If you agree with us that inclusive assemblies are the way forward, please contact your own MP and request that they speak up on your behalf in support of the Bill.

Just leave the suit of armour at home if meeting them in person…

Ideas for a School Assembly Guaranteed to Engage Students

' src=

Last updated on March 28, 2024

School assemblies can be met with groans if students are expecting another boring presentation. But with the right type of presentation, you can make your school assembly both entertaining and educational. We have some creative ideas to help you build your assembly program this year.

Educational Entertainment

Your assembly ideas will naturally include some education — you are a school, after all! Teach the kids about something they’re interested in outside of the typical classroom setting. Your final choice will depend on your school’s grade levels, attention spans, and budget.

Say it with a song

Singing about serious subjects like math or science may seem silly, but many children’s musicians specialize in educational songs! These entertainers are probably better suited for elementary schools though it can be lots of fun for all ages. Soon enough, your students will be learning the words and singing about subjects covering everything from friendship to geography. And bonus, music primes the brain for learning so they’ll perform better when they return to the classroom.

Focus on teamwork

The world of sports can teach your students a lot about teamwork, discipline, and focusing on their goals. Book a sports exhibition show like BMX riders, acrobats, skateboard riders, or ball stunts to captivate your students with their mind-blowing feats.

If your sports-minded youngsters are in need of motivation, include an athletic speaker in your school assembly program. These professionals from the sports world will share motivational stories of perseverance that inspire students to reach for the stars.

Athletic speaker for a school assembly

Invite a mad scientist

Nothing says educational fun like a science assembly! Book a science party to set up exciting experiments that explore interesting subjects like chemistry, biology, anatomy, and more. Consider having students attend the assembly in smaller groups so everyone gets a chance to participate in the demonstrations.

🧪 Make it a party! Check out all of our great mad science party ideas for more inspiration.

Learn from the past

Bring history to life with a visit from a prominent person from the past! Historical characters dress and stay in character to share the accomplishments of great figures like Ben Franklin or Eleanor Roosevelt. Other notable figures like Frederick Douglass and Harriet Tubman can contribute to an impactful experience for Black History Month events .

Book a presidential impersonator like Abraham Lincoln or George Washington to share what it was like to lead the United States during milestones in our history. You can even hire Civil War reenactors to give students a historically accurate look at life as a soldier.

Historical characters for a school assembly

Character Education

Growing up is challenging, and students are faced with all kinds of choices and changes every day. As educators, you can provide guidance and help them be good people. Include character education in your school assembly ideas to deal with these issues in a positive way.

Listen to others’ stories

A good storyteller can engage kids with personal (or fictionalized) stories about all kinds of subjects. From divorce to puberty to bigger issues like gun control, a storyteller will craft relatable tales that let students know they aren’t alone.

Bullying is something that every school struggles with, so an anti-bullying assembly is important for students. Book a motivational speaker to help your students look inward and learn to treat others the way they want to be treated.

👉 Read this: Anti-Bullying Assembly Ideas to Impact Your Students

To address serious issues with a lighter touch, think about booking a stand-up comedian instead. These pros are great at tailoring material to their audience. Subjects can include first crushes, dealing with acne, annoying siblings, social media woes, and parents who just don’t understand. When students are all laughing at the same things, they may start to realize their peers are humans, too.

Share it with a skit

Sometimes younger children can’t absorb a heavy discussion or speech, so try something more light-hearted! Hire a puppet show to put on skits that deal with friendship and sharing or even more serious subjects like abuse.

If puppets are too juvenile for your students, consider an improv show instead. The kids may enjoy tossing out subjects for the group to focus on while performing silly skits. And you’ll get an idea about what social subjects are most meaningful to your students!

Encourage awareness

Building good character means paying attention to your health, too. Young people are often struggling with body image, depression, or self-esteem issues. Let them know that it’s necessary to acknowledge these feelings! Book a health and fitness expert to lead a discussion on everything from healthy diets to mental health awareness.

Being aware of your environment is another big part of becoming a well-rounded person. Help your students take care of Mother Earth with some guidance from an environmental speaker . They may even be inspired to take some tips home to their parents!

Coming up with school assembly ideas that will keep your students engaged is a challenge for every teacher or principal. The most important thing is letting your school know you care. Luckily, there are pros to help you share messages of love and support! 🏫

Leavers Assembly Ideas

Your school leavers assembly is an important milestone in school life for your year six pupils. Done well, these assemblies have the power to create lots of laughter and maybe even a few tears. If you’re looking for inspiration for your leavers assembly, take a look at seven great ideas below.

Recreate Favourite Moments

No doubt there will be some standout moments from your class’ primary school years. Why not create some short sketches to recreate them? You pupils could play themselves and the teachers – the more over-the-top the acting the better. To decide your moments why not have a class vote? You could give your class ten choices, from favourite assemblies, school plays, sports day and charity events, to funny moments in the classroom and playground. They could then vote to whittle these down to their favourite three and have good fun reminiscing whilst they do. This is great activity for having lots of fun whilst keeping costs low.

Most Likely to…

Make all of your school leavers feel special by awarding them with a ‘most likely to…’. This allows you to quickly highlight your pupils’ positive attributes and is fun too. Here are some ideas:

  • Most likely to… become a stand-up comedian
  • Most likely to… read every book in the world
  • Most likely to… become an astronaut
  • Most likely to… use their powers of persuasion for evil
  • Most likely to… own enough animals to recreate Noah’s arc
  • Most likely to… become a mathematical genius
  • Most likely to… become a world-famous artist
  • Most likely to… use their skill for creating drama to become a successful actor

School Reunion 2079

Ask your pupils to create a play imagining that they meet up again at a school reunion in 2089 when they are 81 years old. They should include conversations about what they have done with their lives, as well as reminiscing about their time at school and the friendships that they made. A lot of the comedy will come from the fact that your eleven-year-olds are dressed up as OAPs, but don’t forget that fashion will have changed a lot in eighty years. Your pupils could create their own futuristic outfits, as well as imagining what technology will be like – they could be nostalgic for the days of iPhones and Netflix.

Teacher Awards

Instead of giving awards to your pupils, why not get your class to host their very own awards show for the teachers? They could dress up as celebrities to present the awards and have a funny presenter too. Possible categories could include:

  • The funniest teaching incident
  • Best dressed teacher
  • The most smiley teacher
  • The funniest teacher
  • The teacher who drinks the most coffee
  • Most enthusiastic teacher

Pupils should announce the nominees and why they have been nominated, before announcing the winner, trying to make the speeches as funny as possible.

One of the first things that pupils learn at school is the alphabet, why not ask your class to come up with their own alphabet poem, full of things they’ve encountered during their primary school years.

A is for… apple pie at lunchtime, arithmetic, Mr Andrews and assemblies B is for… basketball, school bags, best friends and bad behaviour C is for… cookery lessons, cake sales, children and computers

Each child could be assigned a letter to read out, with any remaining pupils introducing the poem, or acting out what the others are saying.

Leavers Songs

Another great way for pupils to reminisce is to tell their primary school story through song. Why not pick your pupils’ favourite song from this year’s charts and rewrite the lyrics? This makes the song unique for that year, as well as making it even more entertaining for the audience? If you have the time and the budget, you could even create your own music video and premiere it on screen during your leavers assembly.

Who’s This?

One of our favourite leavers assembly ideas, and a relatively simple one, is to create a PowerPoint of pictures of your year 6 pupils when they were babies and get the audience to guess who is who. To add an extra bit of fun, why not slip a few teacher baby pictures in there too?

How to Plan School Assemblies That Students Will Love

presentation ideas for school assembly

School assemblies can be a cornerstone of a student’s educational experience. Done right, they can inspire, educate, and foster a sense of community. However, planning assemblies that students will love requires a balance of entertainment, education, and engagement.

In this guide, we’ll explore how to create memorable school assemblies that students will look forward to.

Know Your Students

presentation ideas for school assembly

The first step in planning a successful school assembly is understanding your audience. Each student body is unique, with diverse interests, backgrounds, and age groups. Conduct surveys or informal polls to gauge what topics, activities, or themes resonate with your students. Knowing what excites them will guide you in creating a program they’ll enjoy.

Age Appropriateness

Tailor the content of your assembly to the age group of your audience. Younger students might enjoy interactive activities and vibrant visuals, while older students might appreciate more sophisticated presentations and discussions. Make sure the language, themes, and activities are suitable for the age group attending.

Choose Engaging Themes

presentation ideas for school assembly

Select themes that are relevant to the students’ lives and interests. Topics such as anti-bullying, environmental awareness, cultural diversity, and mental health can be both educational and engaging. The key is to present these themes in a way that is relatable and interesting.

Seasonal and Special Events

Align your assemblies with seasonal events or significant dates. Celebrating holidays, cultural festivals, or awareness days can add a layer of excitement and relevance. For example, an assembly on Earth Day focused on sustainability practices can be both timely and impactful.

Incorporate Student Participation

presentation ideas for school assembly

Encourage student participation to make the assembly more engaging. This can include student-led presentations , performances, or interactive Q&A sessions. When students are involved, they are more likely to be attentive and invested in the assembly.

Hands-On Activities

Incorporate hands-on activities such as workshops, demonstrations, or interactive games. Activities that require students to move around, collaborate, and participate actively can make the assembly more dynamic and enjoyable.

Use Visual and Audio Aids

presentation ideas for school assembly

Leverage multimedia to make your assembly visually and audibly stimulating. Use videos, slideshows, and music to break the monotony and keep students engaged. High-quality visuals and sound can enhance the overall experience and make the content more memorable.

Live Streaming and Recordings

For larger schools or in times when in-person gatherings are limited, consider live streaming the assembly. Recording the event also allows students who were absent to catch up later and provides a resource for future use.

Invite Guest Speakers

presentation ideas for school assembly

Guest speakers can add a fresh perspective and credibility to your assembly. Invite individuals who have made significant contributions in their fields, such as authors, scientists, athletes, or activists. Hearing from someone who has real-world experience can inspire and motivate students.

Relatable Role Models

Sometimes, the most impactful speakers are those who students can relate to on a personal level. Alumni, local community leaders, or even fellow students with unique experiences can provide relatable and inspiring stories.

Plan and Rehearse

A well-structured plan is crucial for a smooth assembly. Outline the schedule, activities, and responsibilities in detail. Make sure all participants know their roles and the timeline of events. A clear plan helps prevent confusion and ensures that the assembly runs smoothly.

Practice and Rehearsal

Rehearse the assembly to iron out any potential issues. Run through the entire program with all participants to ensure everyone is prepared and comfortable with their roles. This will help minimize surprises and improve the overall flow of the event.

Gather Feedback

presentation ideas for school assembly

After the assembly, gather feedback from students and staff. This can be done through surveys, suggestion boxes, or informal discussions . Understanding what worked well and what didn’t can help you improve future assemblies.

Reflect on the feedback and your observations to identify areas for improvement. Adapt your strategies and make necessary changes to ensure each assembly is better than the last. Continuous improvement is key to maintaining student interest and engagement.

Final Thoughts

By following these steps, you can create assemblies that not only educate and entertain but also inspire and unite your student body. With creativity and strategic planning, school assemblies can become a highlight of the school year, fostering a positive and inclusive school culture.
