Summer 2012 - Joseph Assembly Series
Our Summer Term assemblies have been written based around the story of Joseph.
We have been visited by Joseph each Monday and he has told the story of each part of his life. Each part of his story has given us a thought of the week, from which big questions arise. These questions are then considered and discussed during Thoughtful Time on Tuesdays. The children write in with their reflections and opinions and many of these are read out during assembly on Friday. Have a look at our ‘questions of the week’ from each of the assembly pages and hear what your children think; the responses are often very insightful.
Each class has been set the challenge of learning and performing a different song from the musical version of Joseph and we’ve enjoyed sharing the children’s talents.
In addition to this and in preparation for this Summer’s Olympics, an Olympic theme is also threaded through the assemblies and discussed on Wednesdays—always relating back to our thought of the week.
