Synopsis: |
Are you sitting comfortably children? Well, let's put an end to that! Challenging times call for challenging assemblies and the 21st century looks like being a very challenging time indeed. Global warming, depleted resources, conflicts, disease and the growing gap between the haves and the have-nots - the future looks like being just one thing after another. It's hard enough for adults to confront these problems on a daily basis, let alone children. Not to mention the fact that it is the children sitting in our classrooms today who will have to solve these problems, not us. With a focus on citizenship, spirituality, values and taking responsibility, this unique book is a reworking of the traditional school assembly for modern times and is a must for schools looking to develop the next generation of thinkers who can go out and save the world. |
