This document provides information about assemblies for the Values Based Education Membership Resource Pack. It states that the assemblies are free for member schools to use but should not be shared. Schools can adapt the assemblies for their context by deleting or adding slides. The assemblies are designed to explore values through different activities over the following month. Feedback on the assemblies is welcome. Kindness is the featured value for this month's assembly. The assembly encourages students to reflect on how to spread kindness and make the world a kinder place.

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/KS3/KS4.
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.
