This week, we focussed the assembly on Bonfire Night and Fire Safety. I asked the children to think about their favourite things about Bonfire Night and we shared these. We talked about the history of Bonfire Night and why it is still a tradition in Britain. The children had some knowledge and were keen to share this. We talked about Guy Fawkes’s role in the plot and the fact that he wasn’t the person who came up with the idea or the person who organised the plot. We then moved on to discuss how to stay safe on Bonfire night. A really interesting assembly and a great way to reinforce British traditions and British Values.
