New Year Resolutions Assembly Sample text

Child 13:               Take the first step!

Child 14:               Don’t let what you can’t do get in the way of what you can do!

Child 15:               Realize your own potential.

Narrator:             Wow! I’m enjoying all these positive vibes! Let’s keep this up! Looks like I’ve got a future taking assemblies after all!

Child 16:               Yes, look to the future. But make sure you make the most of the present.

Child 17:               Be aware of what you’ve got. Be aware of what you have achieved – and build on it.

Child 18:               Seize any opportunities that come your way.

Child 19:               Don’t be afraid of change – embrace it!

Child 20:               Change is good! Stay on your toes!

Child 21:               Try out new things! Take up new hobbies!

Child 22:               Make new friends!

Child 23:               Take up new challenges. Set yourself new targets!

Narrator:             Now that’s important! It’s all very fine having these fine-sounding aspirations, but how many of them are we actually going to remember? How many of them will we actually put into action? That’s the important bit.

Child 24:               Agreed! So, start with a list.

Child 25:               That’s what my mum does when she goes shopping. Trouble is, she always loses it!

Child 24:               So make several copies. Write it in your diary at night. Think of something new for every day – well, maybe every week!

Narrator:             (Coughing) Er.. Time for another reality check! Some of us find it hard enough doing this exercise once a year, let alone once a week!

Child 25:               Well, these resolutions don’t have to be written in tablets of stone!

Narrator:             Just as well! They’d be pretty hard to carry around!

Child 25:               It’s all about keeping an open mind! If something new and exciting comes along, grab it!

Narrator:             So, you’re saying this is all about … state of mind?

Child 26:               That’s what we’re saying! It’s called

Whole cast:        (Shouting) Staying Alive!

Child 27:               Open your eyes!

Child 28:               Open your ears!

Narrator:             But most importantly …

Whole Cast:        (Shouting) Open your minds!

Narrator:             That is the key, it seems, from what you’ve all been saying! Seems easy enough! Alot easier than going down the gym every week!

Child 29:               No! Wait! Nobody’s saying this is easy. Looking after your body is just as important as looking after your mind. The two go together – you have to look after both or neither will work!

Narrator:             (Scratching his head) You’re losing me!

Child 30:               OK, let me explain. I need the energy that exercise gives me, to think properly! If I sit around all day, not doing anything physically active, then my brain will become inactive! If I don’t push myself physically, I won’t (a) have the energy or (b) have the motivation to do anything! That simple! If your body gets sluggish, so does your brain. You’ve got to look after both!

Narrator:             Dear, dear! Maybe I need to do a few more lengths at the local swimming pool!

Child 1:                 Why not? Exercising by yourself is just as effective as playing a team sport and scoring goals for your team.

Narrator:             Hey! Wait a minute! Speaking of realistic goals – weren’t you the one, right at the beginning of this assembly, with slightly, shall we say, unrealistic goals?

Child 1:                 What? About being good all the time? Yeah, that was me. But I’ve been listening to what everyone’s been saying and I think I’ve got a better idea about those New Year Resolutions now and what they actually mean.

Narrator:             Which is?

Child 1:                 That it’s about ‘growing’ each day.

Child 2:                 Growing in body and mind.

Child 3:                 And knowing that the sky is the limit!
