The book gives a structure for any assembly that can be easily followed with minimum preparation and provides plenty of opportunities for children to learn interactively and reflect on the theme introduced.

personal relationships and values, including friendship, bullying, tolerance, and greed; health and wellbeing, including exercise, food, safety at home and online, and mental health; global issues, including conservation, the environment, world hunger, and peace; festivals and celebrations, including Diwali, Hanukkah, Ramadan, Chinese New Year, and Christmas.
