children in assembly

Assemblies

Schools are such significant places in the lives of children and young people, and Assemblies are just one of many ways Scripture Union can help you connect with your local schools.

 

"And how can they hear if nobody tells them?" 
Romans 10:14

The contribution that local churches can make to school assemblies and acts of collective worship is highly valued by many schools. Members of a local church can often bring a great depth of wisdom, creativity and experience that adds to the pupils' experience of the Christian faith!

But we know that delivering an assembly or act of collective worship can seem very daunting and challenging. That's why we're here to equip and support you with ideas, guidance, training and advice!

Free Assembly Resources

We love creating content that you can simply 'pick up and use'.

So, whether you want to support a child that is moving from primary to secondary school, or embrace the Church of England's initiative 'Thy Kingdom come', we have assembly resources for you! And if you have any questions, get in touch with your local team!
