Values Assembly - Courage
- 1. Assemblies in the VbE Membership Resource Pack are free for member schools to use. We respectfully ask that you don’t share this material. Please feel free to adapt this assembly to the context of your school. There are notes at the bottom of many slides. Delete slides which are less relevant and add images etc of your setting. Some slides are more suited to EY/KS1/KS2 etc. Assemblies are designed so that much of the material can be explored in classes and lessons for the month after the initial assembly. Eg, films, songs, philosophical questions, scenarios etc. The images have all been purchased, or are copyright free or are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 3.0 License. If you have any feedback or suggestions for VbE, please get in touch: info@valuesbasededucation.com If you like an assembly written which isn’t in the pack yet, please let us know and we will write if for you (please give at least 30 days notice). Newsletters to accompany assemblies are in the Resource Pack and also some ideas for displays.

- Time for a moment of reflection while children and staff think about how the value has shown in their lives during the last month. Encourage them to think of how it affected their own thinking and behaviour and also that of other people.
- Re-cap on previous values. Talk about building your ‘values toolkit’ and using them all the time. Delete those which haven’t been explored yet and/or replace with different values as appropriate. If you are in the second cycle, recap on all of the values from the first cycle.
