18th September, School News Headlines Today: The school assembly is a long-running tradition followed religiously even today. Every morning, students and teachers gather in the ground or the hall for the assembly.
The format of the school assembly has remained largely unchanged over the years but does tend to vary slightly depending on the types of schools. The principal or another senior head says a few words, and students read the top news headlines, and organize role plays, talent hunts, debates or other fun activities.
Prayers, yoga physical exercise and singing the national anthem can also be included in the morning assembly. But it’s the news reading that’s considered a necessary requirement in any school assembly. It helps inform the students about global and domestic happenings and increases their general awareness.
