Assembly Programme
This year, we’ve teamed up with TV presenter, Jamie Rickers, and 400m Olympic medallist, Katharine Merry, to bring you 3 great assembly topics based around the themes of Ready... Steady... Go!
Assembly One - Ready . . .
Our first assembly explores the topic of motivation. Jamie and Katharine reflect on what it was that made Katharine believe that she could become an Olympian. Jamie wonders what it would take to become a great athlete. Used with exercises in 'The Playground', children can start thinking about ways they can achieve goals they set themselves.
Assembly Two - Steady . . .
Katharine knows all about healthy eating to fuel a successful sporting career. In this film, she shares her knowledge with a reluctant Jamie who seems to be happier eating burgers and chocolate.
They compare the contents of their supermarket trolleys to see how well Jamie can achieve his goal of getting ready for the Tesco Great School Run on a diet of fast food rather than go-faster foods.
Assembly Three - Go!
Our final assembly sees Katharine as Jamie’s personal trainer. Having got him into the right kit, she takes him out and about to see what others do to be active for at least 60 minutes a day. The film takes us through a fast-forward montage of Jamie’s efforts with surprising results!
