Assemblies at Great Linford Primary School

Our Assembly Aims

At Great Linford Primary School we value the importance of community. Part of this is the importance of social and emotional connections. Shared worship during assemblies allows us to celebrate our own and other's achievements, reflect on our own thoughts and values in addition to fostering a sense of school pride. Whether listening to invited guests or sharing our Home Learning, assemblies play a central role in the life at Great Linford Primary School. 


Whole School Assembly

​This is currently held via Zoom. Each half term, our new value is launched in a Monday assembly. All staff attend this assembly where we share the value and are able to discuss it together and what it means to us.  Whole school assembly allows children  to talk about what values mean at home as well as school and share their own opinions, thoughts and reflections with others. We follow the JIGSAW PSHE scheme which guides our thoughts and discussion.

Values Assemblies

Due to the current situation we are not holding in-person assemblies; instead we have been holding virtual assemblies. Our House captains, School Council and Digital Leaders all have the responsibility ​for helping to plan and deliver our weekly 'Values Assemblies' which help explore our half-termly theme. These are linked to our PSHE Jigsaw value which the children also explore in lesson time. Additionally, we also celebrate weekly achievements, share the weekly House point total and award any Presentation Awards
​

Year Group Assembly

We are very much enjoying being able to share, celebrate and reflect as year group again. Our weekly Year Group Assemblies are a critical means to celebrate achievements such as our Confident Voice Awards, Pen and Pencil Awards as well as reflect upon our current PSHE themes. Additionally, teachers are also singing songs linked to our seasonal celebrations. For example, Christmas or Harvest songs.
