An Easy to Follow Plan
There are no pesky multiple downloads with Out of the Box - our easy to follow plan is included in the presentation in advance of your first slide. It is simple to print out and includes everything you will need, including advice on extending your assembly further.
A Beautiful Presentation
All of the Out of the Box assemblies come with a beautifully crafted presentation to show to the children. These are simple but provide handy prompts and images to bring your assembly to life. Our presentations are so comprehensive that they can be delivered by any member of staff.
Optional Collective Worship Content
If you need to turn your assembly into a thought provoking collective worship session, we have you covered. Every assembly comes with optional slides that can be added to the presentation with ease. We also provide ideas for extending your Bible links further with videos and song.
Presentation Tips
If you are looking to improve your presentation, you are in luck. We have a range of hints and tips from experienced teachers. We have both assemblies and collective worship covered and can have you presenting like a pro in no time.
Fully Adaptable
Our assemblies are fully adaptable. Hover over the images below to find out more:
All the text in our assembly presentations is completely editable. Want to reword a question, tweak a story, or throw in some extra details? Just click and type—easy as that.
Fancy a song? We believe every school should be a singing school. While we don’t create our own music, we’ve recommended some songs from our talented friends.
To keep costs down, we don’t produce our own video content for assemblies. But if you’d like to include one, we’ve suggested a few great videos you can use.
Our suggested values are completely flexible. For instance, the Anne Frank assembly can be easily adapted to focus on Resilience instead of Hope.
