Description

Queen Elizabeth II Assembly or Class Play – part of Kings and Queens Series for Key Stage I, plus Queen’s Jubilee Assembly i.e. 2 for 1!

Queen Elizabeth II Assembly or Class Play – part of Kings and Queens Series for Key Stage I, plus Queen’s Jubilee Assembly. These two scripts were written at two different times – one, during the year of the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations; and the second in 2019. As there is quite an overlap on information, it was decided to sell the two together, as a 2 for 1. The first script is shorter and simpler than the second and suitable for early Key Stage I. The second is perhaps more for later Key Stage I.

It was decided to keep the two scripts separate so that if, for example, the customer is looking for an earlier year’s script, then the first is fine as it is. However, if the customer is looking for more detail, slightly higher level of text and longer production, then text can be taken from the second script – obviously minus the Jubilee references.

Also available: The Queen’s 90th Birthday Party Assembly
