Free Member School Assemblies on Positivity
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.
The images have all been purchased, or are copyright free or are licensed

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.
16. You have a
choice…
to see the positive
side of things and
take action for a
good outcome…
or not to expect
or hope for a
good outcome.
But the good news is that YOU can change your
attitude and outlook!
LOOK FOR the positives that could happen.
You can LEARN from any situation!
17. What values do you see in
this short film?
What changes in attitudes?
18. Think for yourself!
What would you like to happen.
How would you like to feel?
It’s really easy to be dragged down
by negative people around you.
Be the one who shines – and wins!
19. Visualisation to achieve the best outcome..
Sit comfortably, close your eyes and think of a time you did
something really well …
How did you feel at the time - what did you think, see and
hear? Who were you with and how did they react?
Now think about something you find challenging,
perhaps feeling successful in a test.
Or perhaps getting along with people at playtimes.
Imagine it going really well and play a movie of this in your
mind. In the test you would know all the answers and write
them down, smiling - celebrating your best score ever.
In the playground, you would be laughing and playing games,
surrounded with people who wanted to be your friend.
When it comes to tricky situations,
you can replay the images
which may help you achieve the best outcome.
21. Perhaps your class or your
school could create your own
‘Positivity News’
22. An activity to try…
Start to create ‘positive bunting’ to
decorate your class.
Add flags as you think of and carry
out positive acts.
23. An activity to try…
What stars are you shooting for?
What are your goals?
What ambitions do you have?
How can you stay positive when
things get tough?
24. Sometimes it’s really hard to be positive.
You may be tired, busy, poorly, unhappy,
worried or even frightened.
It’s at these times when you can turn
things around if you adopt a positive
attitude – but it’s a hard thing to do
and you might need to ask
for support or help from others.
And that’s fine.
BE BRAVE and ask…
We all need a bit of help
sometimes.
25. The POSITIVITY Line
Try to be aware of times when you
are feeling very positive,
very negative,
or somewhere in between.

29. A quiet moment of prayer or reflection...
As we reflect,
think about how
positivity
makes the world
a better place to be.
30. Here in our school
Let us be peaceful at all times.
Let our rooms be full of happiness
and respect for each other.
Let love be in our hearts
With kindness and compassion for all.
Let us remember
In learning together,
We grow together
And succeed together.
A prayer for all of us
31. Over the next
month, reflect at
the end of the day
and think about
when you chose to
be positive…
32. Over the next month,
see if you can make
better things happen
by choosing to be
positive rather than
negative…
33. Be aware of the
negative influences
around you.
Are you allowing
these to affect you?
If you are – have
courage!
34. Why not make it your
goal to shine with
positivity – even when
the going gets tough!
Work for the BEST
outcome!
