EURO 2016 (Leavers) Assembly FREE with this assembly – EURO 2016 Quiz

EURO 2016 (Leavers) Assembly Who would have thought Mr. Head would have so much trouble in this Leavers’ Assembly –  disciplining …….. his own staff?! There’s Mr. Place – a geography teacher with an unfortunate temper; there’s Mrs Sums – with an unfortunate obsession with numbers; there’s Mrs Write – with her unfortunate outspokenness … are you spotting a pattern here? And as for Mr. Force from the science department … well, let’s just say he might have pushed his luck just that little bit too far on this occasion! Anyway, hat’s off to Mr. Head as he struggles on. After all, football is just a game ….. isn’t it?!!

I have put ‘Leavers’ in brackets as this script could also be used as an assembly for any Key Stage II year group(s). The only editing would be taking out the words ‘Leavers Assembly’.

Apologies that this script has only just been released – I’m afraid my coverage of EURO 2016 has been a bit last minute – due really to uncertainty as to how much interest there would be in it – I thought the Olympics would probably have greater mass appeal. I would like to point out that, due to necessity of releasing ‘a’ script quickly for the event (before it’s over!) I have used my World Cup Leavers Assembly as the template for this script – the adjustments obviously being in teams playing (24 as opposed to 32) and dates i.e. the history section.

Duration: around 20 minutes. Cast size suitable for one class – or year group of two or three classes.

Also,

It’s only a suggestion but … if staff (real ones!) were able to make themselves available, it would be great fun to have them playing some of the teachers in this play!

Sample Text

Mr. Head:            Ah! Mrs Write, our Literacy expert!

Mrs Write:          (Enunciating every word slowly and perfectly) Good morning, Mr. Head. Good Morning, children!

Students:            Good morning, Mrs Write!

Mrs Write:          Before we go any further, I do feel it is important that our children can tell the difference between fact and fantasy!

Mr. Head:            Er, don’t you mean facts and opinions?

Mrs Write:          (Impatiently) Just so! Though some of my students seem to be indulging in some very worrying fantasies at the moment.

Student 1:           But you’re always telling us to use our imaginations, Miss!

Mrs Write:          ‘Tis true. But we also need to keep a certain hold on reality. And, to put it bluntly …. (pausing)

Mr. Head:            (Impatiently) Yes, Mrs Write. We haven’t got all day!

Mrs Write:          Well, as long as you can assure me that I won’t upset anyone in speaking my mind?

Mr. Head:            It’s never stopped you in the past!

Mrs Write:          (Cagily) Well, it’s about England’s chances of winning EURO 2016!

Mr. Head:            Ah! (Pauses)  Now I see where you’re coming from. Could I suggest you proceed with extreme caution? With extreme tact, even?

Mrs Write:          Oh don’t you worry! You’re looking at somebody who can not only write to the highest standard but is also always right in everything she says ..

Mr. Head:            (Aside) And so modest with it!

Mrs Write:          Let me just tell anyone who is nursing any illusions about England winning

Mr. Head:            (Anxiously) I think I mentioned tact, Mrs Write?

Mrs Write:          Well …. (takes a deep breath and then blurts out) England doesn’t stand the faintest chance of winning EURO 2016!

(Mr. Head covers his head in despair, as all students rise to their feet in uproar)

Mrs Write:          You see what I mean? Somebody had to tell them! They shouldn’t be allowed to continue believing in this fantasy!

Mr. Head:            (In exasperation) Mrs Write! Have you ever heard the expression ‘Like a bull in a china shop’?

Mrs Write:          Well, of course I have. A rather nice simile describing one who charges in and causes total havoc! (Pauses) But what has that got to do with me?

Mr. Head:            Well, you could try keeping your opinions to yourself! Now, please, before you cause any more trouble!

(Mr. Head directs Mrs Write to her seat, and then gestures at student to sit down and calm down)
