The Witness
This story is taken from More Brilliant Stories for Assemblies, written by Elizabeth Sach and published by Brilliant Publications. Finding courage to speak up about something that is morally wrong is something most adults struggle with, let alone primary school children! In this tale, poor Ranpresh is a recurring victim of “The Gang” of bullies at his school and he is too afraid of the repercussions of telling the truth about his repeated injuries/sickness. When his classmate Hannah notices what is going on, she too is conflicted, however she is so fuelled by her anger towards the unjust situation that she marches to the Headteacher and reports the bullies before the problem can get any worse.

Once Upon a Time
This primary school assembly story is centred on the joy of sharing. It is taken from the book More Brilliant Stories for Assemblies for primary schools written by Elizabeth Sach and published by Brilliant Publications. Young Alexis has learnt the very important life lesson that ‘sharing is caring’, but unfortunately the miniature creature who she finds stealing from her has not. When she chooses to respond with kindness as opposed to reprimand, she shows him mercy and the Shrub’s heart is warmed. He discovers that there is greater pleasure in mutual sharing and turn-taking than keeping things to himself, and once he starts to do so he and Alexis become real friends.
