Picture News

Every Monday we share and discuss the current Picture News in assembly with the help of the Assembly Monitors. This news is always current and relevant to the children’s understanding of the world, covering both global and national news and topics.

Classes then discuss the ‘Big Question’ later on in the week, developing their debating skills.
