July assemblies

This month our primary assembly has a sport theme - ideal to tie in to your sports day events!

The secondary assembly has a climate change theme - looking at how the impact of environmental disasters can be reduced.

Assembly of the month 2009

Christian Aid is delighted to continue supporting you in your efforts to bring global issues to life in your school. Every month we will highlight a new and topical assembly plan ready for you to use. Most will be aimed at primary school children but are easily adapted for use in secondary schools. Some months we will provide an additional Secondary assembly. Welsh versions are available for all.

For a complete list of 2009's upcoming themes, please see below. And if you have a moment, please email and let us know what you think - we'd love to hear any suggestions you have for future topics.
