Yes i remember. though we'd say borrrrrreeeeee dddaaaaaa Miss Thompon. Bore daaaaa frinnnddaaau i'm from Wales. that means "good morning miss thompson. good morning friends"
We had to sit on the floor from p1 to p6 and the kindergarteners (our British school had kindergarten) got to sit on the benches when they joined us for assembly
Same, I was in Catholic school but I wasn't Catholic and that's when I realised I should lip sinc instead. Most of the kids weren't Catholic actually but apparently no one else cared. I got in trouble when I didn't sing in the Christmas assembly and had to sit outside.
Assemblies in Primary school are way much better than Secondary school. In Secondary school we just have to listen to teachers rant about behaviour. In Primary school Reading out the House points was like the most important thing Edit: jeez this got a lot of likes
I swear you guys went to hog warts I went to primary in Scotland and we legit sung hymns and prayed and the head teacher went on about Jesus and would say like if there was a school fair 😂
What d’ya mean House Points?!? We just got rambling on cold hard bleachers that hurt after only 5 minutes. Nothing changed since elementary school (primary (I think)) just rambling on about recycling and behavior and grades and blah blah blah
If you sat on a bench you were practically royalty staring at the peasants below you OR when you sat on the floor with barely any space and someone kicked you in the back and you were petty so you SAT ON THEIR FEET ...idk about you but I did that XD
Libby she’ll be riding six white horses when she comes, she’ll be riding six white horses when she comes, she’ll be riding six white horses, riding six white horses, riding six white horses when she comes, singing aye aye yippy, aye aye yippy, aye aye yippy yippy aye!
Why is no one talking about the absolute banger of a tune? “He’s got the whole world in his hands, he’s got whole wild world in his hands” IT WAS SO GOOD
Did anyone else in the UK have that song that went "We are the children from (insert school name here) school, we take good pride in the things we do, learning together and having fun"......
1. Being on the bench in year 6 was awesome, but if you misbehaved, you had to sit on the floor with all the younger kids. 2. KUMBAYA 3. being on projector duty meant you were the boss of the school that entire week.
+Gemma Stewart as I was like the only musical person in my year I was the one who had to be at the from and sing With the music teacher and would be the one to put everyone in beat
Did anyone else hate sitting cross legged? I can remember getting pins and needles so badly that I'd take my shoes off so I could rub my feet and actually LIMP back from the assembly hall because I couldn't put any weight on my foot without excruciating pain. I don't know if I just had poor circulation or what, but I always seemed to have more trouble than all the other kids in my class.
I used to just put my legs further out, I would get told off for it but I did it regardless. I never didn't anything actually bad in school, just ignored teachers when it came to pointless rules and instructions I didn't like. xD
the worst part is how u spend six years of primary waiting until you get to sit on the benches in yr 6, only to find that they're just as uncomfortable as sitting on the floor
asdfghjkllila In year six at my primary school we still sat crossed legged. Then you went to high school and had chairs! Until my high school decided to put the world's most uncomfortable chairs in the hall. The one's that curve into your back. Now at Uni and they have those chairs for lectures!
Who remembers (British) Cauliflowers fluffy and cabbages green, Strawberry’s sweeter than any I’ve seen, Beetroot purple and onions white, They all grow merrily day and night, Apples are ripe and the plums are red, Broad beans are sleeping in there blankety bed!🤣
In my British primary we would sit down (yr 6 on benches) then we wood say Good morning (teachers name) good morning everybody then the assembly would start
*America enters the chat* America: I like my country. *Britain enters the chat* Britain: IT'S ANOTHER HARVEST FESTIVAL America: Oh no. *America has left the chat*
Game and Animate what the fuck even was a harvest festival, like I'm British and song the song and we even did a play, but I never knew what the fuck a harvest festival was
I'm 26, and I can even remember the picture I had for my peg in nursery before I even started primary school! it was a yellow lemon! and to this day all these years later! when ever I see a lemon, all I can think of is my coat peg I had at nursery when I was 3-4 years old!!!
@@shukriismail4774 It's probably a couple of reasons, notably that we have a national school board that is pretty homogeneous and that a lot of the songs are Church of England hymns
"One more step along the world I go, One more step along the world I go, From the old things to the new, Keeeeeep me traveling along with you. And it's from the old I travel to the new, Keep me traveling along with with you" ABSOLUTE BANGER
I know I'm late but does anyone remember *Wake Up* (British) in primary? I remember it being the first song we did: Wake Up , Wake Up! Give yourself a shake up! Get your body moving. Reach Up (You reach your hands up) Jump Up (If standing, you jump) Give your friends a thumbs up! (Thumbs Up to the kids next to you.) It's another new day~ (Repeat.) Get your feet Dancing to the beat(We'd stomp our feet on the floor) Get your body moving Raise a shout (HEY!) Let your feelings out It's another new day~ God that took forever. I swear I cant be the only person who sang this.
We still do that now! Oh, the horrors. The song would make me fall asleep more than 'wake up' . But when the lyrics go 'hey' everyone would scream as loud as they can. Now that woke me up.
Yes! Does anyone remember "Monday, time to have fun day! Tuesday, listen to the news day! Wednesday, visit some friends day. Half way through the week! Thursday, umms and errs day! Friday, punch the sky day! Saturday, it don't matter day! Nearly through the week! When Sunday comes we can stop and have a little rest for one day...
Who else had any of these things: Golden time Golden tickets Star of the week Music duty or any other schools duty A pet for the kids in reception Pantomimes once a year Open the book
Golden time (except when It was cancelled in Yr 6). Open the book (only in ks1). Duties - we had door during for the highest class. They had to sit by the door and let kids in to use bathroom etc. And a couple of my friends and I did office duty where we legit just sat in the office while the office staff had lunch and we got to answer phones. Pantomimes every year - yes. Just yes.
in my primary school, my year 4 teacher played mission impossible whilst we got changed for PE. you had to be dressed by the end of the song, or you went out in what you had on.
Give me joy in my heart keep me praising Give me joy in my heart I pray Give me joy in my heart keep me praising Keep me praising til the break of day Sing Hosana Sing Hosana (Etc, it’ll take too long to write) I also remember the rainbow song in Yr R I thought it was just a recent thing (well as recent as some years ago can be).
The lyrics are “listen with your eyes” because it was written for deaf people. It’s supposed to raise awareness for the deaf and people would use sign language for the lyrics. THE MORE YOU KNOW
Was it really only my school that was forced to sing the "School Rule Song"? I haven't seen one comment about it, yet we sang it every day in our assemblies (Primary School).
Saaaammmeeee we had to sing that in primary school everyone loved the song cause they would shot the song instead of sing it and the teachers would just regret them having us to sing but it was the best
My school used to sing the classic primary school songs like: 1. Wake up wake up 2. Living and learning 3. Give it all you got And some other songs I can’t remember But we also had to sing songs like 1. Hall of fame by the script 2. Read all about it by emeli Sande 3. Good time by owl city
"light up the fire and let the flame burn. open the door, let jesus return." was always my favourite in primary school. probs because it was the only one with a tune that i liked.
GIVE ME OIL IN MY HEART KEEP ME BURNING, HES GOT THE WHOLE WORLD IN HIS HANDS, RED AND YELLOW AND PINK AND GREEN, PURPLE AND ORANGE AND BLUE I CAN SING A RAINBOW SING A RAINBOW, SING A RAINBOW TOO
Yeah and every year during harvest we would sing specific songs to do with it in singing assemblies and they were always the same each year. The only one I can remember rn though is harvest for the world
Anyone in Scotland/ England sing this song: Chorus Wake up! Wake up! Give yourself a shake up Get your body moving Reach up, jump up Give your friend the thumbs up Its another new day (Repeat) Verse Get your feet Dancing to the beat Get your body moving Raise a shout (HEY!) Let your feelings out Its another new day! Chorus x2 Verse x1 Instrumental Verse x2 Its another new day!
Although when we sang it was more like "So light up the fire and let the flame BURN. Open the door let Jesus reTURN." Maybe that's just Scottish primary school pupil accents.
I'm a....... SPRING CHICKEN IM YELLOW AND SMALL, MY FEATHERS ARE FLUFFY AND THEYRE KEEPING ME WARM, MY LEGS ARE NOT LONG SO I'LL NEVER BE TALL BUT IM A REAL SPRING CHICKEN AND IM HAVIN' A BALL!
Laurel Meldrum CHICKEN IM A CHICKEN AND IM HAVING A BALL. ONE MOTHER HEN SAT ON THREE LITTLE EGGS. THEN ONE DAY SHE HEARD A CRACK. AND A LITTLE BIRD SAID.....iM a SpRiNg ChIcKeN........! Etc 😂
I moved schools halfway through primary and when I went to my new school and discovered that they sang that song there too I literally felt like crying with happiness because I loved that song so much.😂😂😂
Conkers, we're collecting conkers, I want a conker that's better than the rest, under the chestnut tree I reach to see the final conker to be mine. Asmist the autumn leaves I pull it free, and add it to my 99. 100!
BEETROOT PURPLE AND ONIONS WHITE ALL GROWN STEADILY DAY AND NIGHT THE APPLES ARE RIPE AND THE PLUMS ARE RED, THE STRAWBERRIES ARE SLEEPING IN A BLANKETY BED
Who remembers: He's got the whole world in is hands, He's got the whole wide world, in his hands, He's got the whole world in is hands, He's got the whole world in his hands." Or: Im going to paint a perfect PICTCHA, a world of make believe. No more hunger, war or suffering. A world I'd like to seeeeeee. Or how about Tiny Little Me Yes, I remember us being forced into chanting these unimaginative hymns against our own will like hypnotised machines, regardless of our religious beliefs.
From the old things to the new, keep me travelling along with you. I'm about to move to senior school, (my school's weird, senior starts at year 9), and I really want to sing all of these at our last assembly.
Talitha Sewell Ow, 'bout ye miss Smith com' sit on ye floor with 'eggs bloody crossed. Translation to non-English accent: how about you miss smith come sit on the floor with your god damn legs crossed.
I literally knew what Dodie was talking ab when she said she broke her arm 😂 (I’m American) We would all sit on the mat, but because I broke my arm, I got to sit on a chair and I literally felt like a 1st grade queen 😂 it felt like so much power lol.
My school in the midlands (uk) had milk when we were in reception (first year of school) and if you were the milk monitor you had to go and get the cartons of milk from the office. 😂 it was a prestigious role 😂
+Cinzia Jacobson we used to have theatre productions every month in school, like a christmas pantomine every last friday of the mont. and we would have film days where the whole school and not just the year 6s got to sit on benches and watch films like the Incredibles. never had science roadshow, got recycling show once.
I'm a spring chicken, I'm yellow and small, my feathers are fluffy and their keeping me warm! My legs are not long so I'll never be tall! But I'm a real, spring, chicken and I having a ball! Chicken, I'm a chicken and I'm having a ball! (Dun)
One mother hen sat on 5 little eggs Keeping them warm with her little egg nest Then one day she heard a crack And a little voice said once the egg was hatched IM A......
Spring chicken I’m yellow and small my feathers are fluffy and their keeping me warm my legs are not long so I’ll never be tall but I’m a real spring chicken and I’m having a ball🐥😂😂
I pledge allegiance... to the band... of Mr. Schneebly... and will not fight him... for creative control... and will difer to him in all decisions related to the musical direction of the band. It makes more sense to pledge to rock n' roll than to a country lol
Dodie: Did you have music walking when in? Evan: What like the final countdown? Me: *Sips tea remembering he I walked into my yr6 leavers assembly to that song.*
+Izzy this was one of my favourite songs!! we learnt in choir before the rest of the school and those in the choir sang along when the teacher was playing it for everyone - that's what it was to be cool!!
On Monday he gave me the gift of love Tuesday peace came from above On Wednesday he told me to have more faith On Thursday he gave me a little more grace On Friday he told me to watch and pray On Saturday he just what to say On Sunday he gave me the power divine Just to let my little light shine
I remember hating Wake Up And Shake Up! I died while dancing... "It will make you more awake" the teachers said but it made me more tired than anything!
Any one from England remember the song that went "from the tiny ant (from the tiny ant), to the elephant (to the elephant)" and was like a call and response?
In my school... We did every prayer in school assembly. We had a 10minute prayer which included prayers from every major religion Hindu, muslim, Sikhs and Christians. I never realized how diverse it was until i got older. We did it our whole school life.
Primary School assemblies were really fun. But Secondary school ones were funnyyy. I think it was just my school. So in year 9 there was an outbreak of weed brownies and everyone was taking them. The teachers found out and we had an assembly on them and it was just our year. Before the assembly one of my friends ate one. And half way threw the assembly he fainted because of the brownie and honestly it was one of the most funniest things that ever happened. He was fine btw
Oh god the school rules song! I remember that. Also "please miss" - a song about students complaining about each of these and the teacher basically saying shut up
Zebras 724 omg yesssss !!! The life education bus yes and the plastic body that used to light up when you touched it and the tv and you watched a little video of Harold 💗
I didn't, that sounds sooo fun lmao, but my school wasn't *technically* a religious school (except we sang tons of other Christian songs for kids lmao)
Our father who art in heaven. Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses. So we will forgive those that trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. If thine is the kingdom the power and the glory. Forever and ever. Amen.
I wasn't expecting to be able to relate with so many fellow Brits in the comments section... I never knew that things were so similar for most religious schools!
Most schools are(were) C of E.. (Church of England) decent low level relegion based on tea and jumble sales to raise money for a church roof. I am a heavy metal fan, but I still remember the hymn's fondly. Could probably sing most of them, and recite the lord's prayer, yes that one with the trespassing in!
+Molly Agnew OMG childhood memories flooding in here! "And I just thank you father for making me, me!" Along with the sign language that goes with it! We also sung: Morning Has Broken Shine Jesus Shine All Things Bright and Beautiful Kumbaya Thank You Lord For This New Day Sing Hosana etc etc... There were a tonne more but I would be listing them all day haha. We also sang Flower Of Scotland (but that's because I live in Scotland)
The songs my primary school had Wake up wake up Whole world in his hands Harvest song One about dancing with Jesus Firework (Katy Perry) Hold back the river (James Bay) And more hymns depending on the time of year etc etc.
We didn't sing hymns bbbuuutttt.... One head teacher made us sing a really weird song....... "We are the children from (insert school name)we take pride in the things we do. Learning together and having fun. Who's for a good day EVERYONE!!" You can imagine how that went down with 60 bored 11 yr olds
I remember, Spring Chicken A little bit of kindness Busy bodies When it's a rainy day I'm going to paint a perfect picture Let's remember to be grateful What goes in must come out (everyone made fun of the name) The one that was like *put your hands together, together together everyone* The leavers song *Who put the hump upon the camel, who put the neck on the giraffe.* There are loads of others but these are the only ones I remember.
I remember the boy in charge of walking-in music in assembly in primary school always played Fireflies by Owl City and it was honestly the best bit of the day every time
Did anyone sing the “school rules” song and after every verse you’d get faster and faster? This is an important matter, how we should behave at school, we will get along much better, if we can obey the rules
And at the end... LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA OIII (or was it hey at the end I don't remember lol)
"Good morning everyone"
"Goooood moooooorning Miss. Thompson"
"You all sound asleep!"
"GoOoOoD mOoOoOoRnInG mIsS. tHoMpSon!"
British assemblies 101
My Toothbrush Is Blue I actually have a geography teacher called miss Thompson lmao
Yep
Yes i remember. though we'd say borrrrrreeeeee dddaaaaaa Miss Thompon. Bore daaaaa frinnnddaaau
i'm from Wales. that means "good morning miss thompson. good morning friends"
Ours went
GOOD MORNING MISS THOMPSON. AND EVERYBODY.
My Toothbrush Is Blue I'm miss Thompson ool
OKAY BRITISH PEOPLE
WHO REMEMBERS HARVEST FESTIVAL SONGS
THEY WERE THE BEST
|-/
OMG YEAAASSSS!!!!
YES OMG!!!
For harvest would you gather foods for different associations (like for the elderly) etc? Or was that like just my primary school?
And the Easter ones!
That moment you get to year 6 and have the privilege of sitting on the wooden benches. At that point you know you have made it.
Even better was getting to secondary school and getting to sit on the soft comfy chairs in the theatre.
We had to sit on the floor from p1 to p6 and the kindergarteners (our British school had kindergarten) got to sit on the benches when they joined us for assembly
The year sixes got the dirty area at my school
🤣🤣 yesss!
In wales it was
Bore da pawb
Bore da Mrs Roberts
But like rlly stretched out
I learned how to lip sync because of hymns in assembly.
Me too. Once I had to stay in at break because a teacher caught me.
Same
Same, I was in Catholic school but I wasn't Catholic and that's when I realised I should lip sinc instead. Most of the kids weren't Catholic actually but apparently no one else cared.
I got in trouble when I didn't sing in the Christmas assembly and had to sit outside.
My first primary school was really Christian so I learnt how to lip sync there, it was a shock to me where my second primary school didn’t do that
Yeah
Growing up British
Sitting on hard wood floors singing pure Jesus anthems when you weren't even religious
Then when the teacher would ask the class who was actually baptised and if you weren't the teacher would shun you.
Yesss
+CallumCat I begged my mum to let me be baptised so I wouldn't be left out. Instant regret.
So true
I hated assembly and this is why
Assemblies in Primary school are way much better than Secondary school. In Secondary school we just have to listen to teachers rant about behaviour.
In Primary school Reading out the House points was like the most important thing
Edit: jeez this got a lot of likes
Ella Georgia THIS IS SO DAMN TRUE
I swear you guys went to hog warts I went to primary in Scotland and we legit sung hymns and prayed and the head teacher went on about Jesus and would say like if there was a school fair 😂
So true!
Way too true!
What d’ya mean House Points?!? We just got rambling on cold hard bleachers that hurt after only 5 minutes. Nothing changed since elementary school (primary (I think)) just rambling on about recycling and behavior and grades and blah blah blah
If you sat on a bench you were practically royalty staring at the peasants below you
OR when you sat on the floor with barely any space and someone kicked you in the back and you were petty so you SAT ON THEIR FEET
...idk about you but I did that XD
Isabel Hopkins and when those year 5s tried to sneak on you'd roast them
Minty Games good times
Isabel Hopkins the yr 6's sit on benches
Isabel Hopkins Year 6 we felt like we were God's while the little kids sat on the floor
Isabel Hopkins that was the best part Y6, just getting to sit on the benches coz the floor was always uncomfortable
She’ll be coming round the mountain when she comes
She’ll be coming round the mountain when she comes
Aye aye aye yippee ayeee

She’ll be coming round the mountain, she’ll be coming round the mountain, she’ll be coming round the mountain when she comes 🎶
Libby she’ll be riding six white horses when she comes, she’ll be riding six white horses when she comes, she’ll be riding six white horses, riding six white horses, riding six white horses when she comes, singing aye aye yippy, aye aye yippy, aye aye yippy yippy aye!
I remember singing that, but not all of the verses.

"good mooooorning mrs smiiiiiiithhhhh"

How many people sang along s with "HES GOT TJE WHOLE WORLD IN HIS HANDS"
Olivia Holden how many people sang along with all of the uk songs?
Me 😂
Olivia Holden MEEE!!
I sang “he’s got the whole world in his pants”. I was cool like that.
Me lol I sang with all of the songs that she was playing 😂
You have not felt pain until you have had an assembly about a fixed or growth mindset.
You are so right. Problem is I am 32 and had that assembly 6 months ago in work! 😂
saucygibbon56 aha 😂
We had to spend a whole day in high school doing activities about this, it was torture 😭
OMG yes our school introduced this when I was in Yr 6 so I only had a year of torture
Had that recently
Keep on singing
THIS LITTLE LIGHT OF MINE
IM GONNA LET IT SHINE
Jason Rowley omggg yesss
Yesssss...
The amount of times I sung that in my primary school is ridiculous xD
Omg yesssss
Let it shine! Let it shine! Let it shine!!!
You have unlocked a memory I forgot I had.
Thank you
Omg!!! We sang that!!! I'm Scottish
Why is no one talking about the absolute banger of a tune?
“He’s got the whole world in his hands, he’s got whole wild world in his hands”
IT WAS SO GOOD
Yas! Also you may not of heard this one but water of life
In his hand he's got you and me brother !
I rrmember this in my school we used to do religion until year 1 or 2
I always think of the movie Con-Air
and then there would be some cheeky little boy with ginger hair who would sing “he’s got the whole word in his pants”
washington's hat sounds like a discount hamilton song
Rea Keebz I LITERALLY THOUGHT THE EXACT SAME THING LOL
Me too
YEA

Rea Keebz yessssssss
Did anyone else in the UK have that song that went "We are the children from (insert school name here) school, we take good pride in the things we do, learning together and having fun"......

2. KUMBAYA
3. being on projector duty meant you were the boss of the school that entire week.
Yes! So true!
We were forced to sit on the floor from ages 4-13.
Then in secondary school we have to stand for like half an hour

Apples are ripe and the plums are red,
Broad beans are sleeping in there blankety bed!🤣
Outstanding
Omg and I still know the words to it 😂
Cokers, were collecting conkers, I'm trying hard to find the biggest and the best
forgetting the loud SHHHHHHH after "broad beans are sleeping in their blankety bed"

This.
This is pure gold
Oh, my memories.
Game and Animate what the fuck even was a harvest festival, like I'm British and song the song and we even did a play, but I never knew what the fuck a harvest festival was
@Gaming In Scotland That is a excellent question now I think about Wtf is harvest festival. All we ever did was sing songs.
At my British primary school, everyone would have cloakroom pegs to put coats/bags on and every year there were different images on for each class
JetSlinger7654 yesss! Drove primary school!
I'm 26, and I can even remember the picture I had for my peg in nursery before I even started primary school! it was a yellow lemon! and to this day all these years later! when ever I see a lemon, all I can think of is my coat peg I had at nursery when I was 3-4 years old!!!
yass samee
JetSlinger7654 yup
JetSlinger7654 YEEESSSS
U r not British if you dont know the harvest song.
Also its mad that we sang all the same songs.
I don't remember what it was called, but there was one app thing with the songs that was downloaded on the computers that all schools used.
How come all British primary schools sing the same songs? Lol
@@shukriismail4774 It's probably a couple of reasons, notably that we have a national school board that is pretty homogeneous and that a lot of the songs are Church of England hymns
I never sang that one I sang the "cauliflowers fluffy and cabbages green"
CONQUERS! IM COLLECTING CONQUERS!
We are the children of ______ school, we take pride in the things we do,
Learning together and having fun,
Here's to a good time EVERYONE.
Give me 1, give me 2, give me 1,2,3
Give me 1, give me 2, give me 1,2,3
OMGGGGGG YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I used to think I was the shit doing the 'rapping' part
I thought that was just my school!
We had:
learning about the environment,
Who wants to save it? EVERYONE!
though instead of the last two lines
Amanda Stapleton omg our new head introduced that in p5 and people in my form still sing it. We’re in S2
"One more step along the world I go,
One more step along the world I go,
From the old things to the new,
Keeeeeep me traveling along with you.
And it's from the old I travel to the new,
Keep me traveling along with with you"
ABSOLUTE BANGER
Happy Industries YES
The year 4’s got to sing this in the last assembly at lower school (reception-yr4) and we a
each got given a dictionary that everyone would sign
I forgot about this one too 😂👌🏻
I FORGOT THIS EXISTED YOU HAVE JUST UNEARTHED A LONG LOST MEMORY I THANK YOU
I'd totally forgotten about this! My absolute jam!
I know I'm late but does anyone remember *Wake Up* (British) in primary? I remember it being the first song we did:
Wake Up , Wake Up!
Give yourself a shake up!
Get your body moving.
Reach Up (You reach your hands up)
Jump Up (If standing, you jump)
Give your friends a thumbs up! (Thumbs Up to the kids next to you.)
It's another new day~
(Repeat.)
Get your feet
Dancing to the beat(We'd stomp our feet on the floor)
Get your body moving
Raise a shout
(HEY!)
Let your feelings out
It's another new day~
God that took forever. I swear I cant be the only person who sang this.
We still do that now! Oh, the horrors. The song would make me fall asleep more than 'wake up' . But when the lyrics go 'hey' everyone would scream as loud as they can. Now that woke me up.
Yes! Does anyone remember
"Monday, time to have fun day!
Tuesday, listen to the news day!
Wednesday, visit some friends day.
Half way through the week!
Thursday, umms and errs day!
Friday, punch the sky day!
Saturday, it don't matter day!
Nearly through the week!
When Sunday comes we can stop and have a little rest for one day...

Now I have GCSEs ):
Golden time (except when It was cancelled in Yr 6). Open the book (only in ks1). Duties - we had door during for the highest class. They had to sit by the door and let kids in to use bathroom etc. And a couple of my friends and I did office duty where we legit just sat in the office while the office staff had lunch and we got to answer phones.
Pantomimes every year - yes. Just yes.
I had the first 3.
my primary school had golden time, a pantiome and recently (last year) they got a dog
Ah, music duty! Handing out the hymn books and taking them back in. Fairly nice job, actually.
at 5:41...we had to sing "Give me oil in my lamp, keep me burning"
and the chorus was "Sing Hosanna (x3) to the Lord above"
Malfoy, Draco Malfoy
i know these lyrics cuz my mom and gramdma are super religious so we listened to jesus songs in the car. and we hand hand motions to like everything
malfoy, Draco malfoy

Some Speed artist also the part that goes keep the oil in my lamp keep it burning etc
Some Speed artist SING HOSANA TO THE KING OF KINGS
My Methodist Nana used to sing that--"Give me joy in my heart!" while scrubbing our faces when we visited her"

Leyla's crazy world we have groovy groups and headteacher awards
Leyla's crazy world we had headteacher award and house certificates x
Leyla's crazy world we also were allowed to bring in like swimming certificates or sports trophies on Fridays to show everyone
Leyla's crazy world We have a Friday assembly every week where certain people get all sorts of awards for achievements and stuff
Leyla's crazy world OMGG WAT A THROWBACK I STILL HAVE ALL MY CERTIFICATES
The lyrics are “listen with your eyes” because it was written for deaf people. It’s supposed to raise awareness for the deaf and people would use sign language for the lyrics. THE MORE YOU KNOW
I am now educated
We did all our hymns with sign language because we had a down syndrome kid in our year
Was it really only my school that was forced to sing the "School Rule Song"?
I haven't seen one comment about it, yet we sang it every day in our assemblies (Primary School).
is that 'we will get along much better when we can obey the rules' because i saw another comment and yeah its a bop
It was fun to sing but I thought it was a bit fucked up because like,,, indoctrination and that. I mean it's not that deep but still
Saaaammmeeee we had to sing that in primary school everyone loved the song cause they would shot the song instead of sing it and the teachers would just regret them having us to sing but it was the best
Yeah I think we did
We sang this lol
My school used to sing the classic primary school songs like:
1. Wake up wake up
2. Living and learning
3. Give it all you got
And some other songs I can’t remember
But we also had to sing songs like
1. Hall of fame by the script
2. Read all about it by emeli Sande
3. Good time by owl city
Yas same
Yeh we never sang hymd
Amy Lynch where did you go to primary school
Jenna Wells you must be young
Amy Lynch I LOVE GIVE IT ALL YOU GOT
When he started singing dare I died and flashbacks
kat- artist contry roads, take me home
"light up the fire and let the flame burn. open the door, let jesus return." was always my favourite in primary school. probs because it was the only one with a tune that i liked.
yass
Omgggggg
that song was so pretty!
That's the one I always had to sing
'Take seeds of his spirit, let the fruit grow. Tell the people of Jesus, let his love show' wow I'm fucking sad
GIVE ME OIL IN MY HEART KEEP ME BURNING, HES GOT THE WHOLE WORLD IN HIS HANDS, RED AND YELLOW AND PINK AND GREEN, PURPLE AND ORANGE AND BLUE I CAN SING A RAINBOW SING A RAINBOW, SING A RAINBOW TOO
I- this is too accurate
Omg did any one else do the harvest festival
Painful memories
Yeah and every year during harvest we would sing specific songs to do with it in singing assemblies and they were always the same each year. The only one I can remember rn though is harvest for the world
@@elenaobradovic4181 OMG yeah, me too. We always had one the same every year, and one different
Yea... super fun but super tiring
Helpahoe yes

Chorus
Wake up! Wake up!
Give yourself a shake up

Reach up, jump up
Give your friend the thumbs up

SO LIGHT UP THE FIRE,
LET THE FLAME BURN
OPEN THE DOOR
LET JESUS RETURN
Was an absolute classic, best one by far
So many memories
YUP
Although when we sang it was more like "So light up the fire and let the flame BURN. Open the door let Jesus reTURN." Maybe that's just Scottish primary school pupil accents.
+Beth Munson
INTO THE CITY
INTO THE STREET
AND LETS GIVE A MESSAGE TO THE PEOPLE WE
Take seeds of his spirit let the fruit grow tell people of Jesus let his love show
When u get in trouble in assembly and the teacher tells u to stand up in front of so many children was the most awkward and funniest thing for me😂

Yes
Conkers we’re collecting conkers we’re trying hard to find the biggest and the best
Any brits remember this
Conkers, we're collecting conkers, I want a conker that's better than the rest, under the chestnut tree I reach to see the final conker to be mine. Asmist the autumn leaves I pull it free, and add it to my 99. 100!
Conkers, we're collecting conkers, I'm trying hard to find one better than the rest
OMUSJUSJWUEGEYD WE SUNG THAT
Me and my mate still have an ongoing joke about that song, we used to piss ourselves laughing because we thought 'conkers' referred to testicles.
Under the chestnut tree it waits for me
"Cauliflowers and roasted potatoes taste so good to me, it's another harvest festival". That that was a banger
Where we bring our fruits and vegetables
Omg yes such a vibe
No one
Literally no one
Not even god himself
My school assembly: CAULIFLOWERS FLUFFY AND CABBAGES GREEN STRAWBERRIES SWEETER THAN ANYONES SEEEN

Has it always been "I can sing a rainbow"??? I've always sang "I can see a rainbow"!!
I kind of feel like I've been lied to me whole entire life..
Listen to your eyes, listen to your eyes. Singing everything you see!
+William Helfrich This is too real, I only found this out like a couple of months ago and I feel like for 18 years, I have been lied to!
+William Helfrich i was so surprised when she started singing that song, because we had to sing it before English classes in Norway
I've been singing "I can see a rainbow". I feel like a fool.
Who remembers: He's got the whole world in is hands,
He's got the whole wide world, in his hands,
He's got the whole world in is hands,
He's got the whole world in his hands."
Or: Im going to paint a perfect PICTCHA, a world of make believe. No more hunger, war or suffering. A world I'd like to seeeeeee.
Or how about Tiny Little Me
Yes, I remember us being forced into chanting these unimaginative hymns against our own will like hypnotised machines, regardless of our religious beliefs.
Death The Kid Yessss
yesss haha
Dammmm don't remind me
With the hand actions too. Sheesh
Death The Kid yes

From the old things to the new, keep me travelling along with you.
I'm about to move to senior school, (my school's weird, senior starts at year 9), and I really want to sing all of these at our last assembly.
The saddest song
This brought back memories I didnt know I had
We sang that on the last day of school every year
They told us to sit cross legged, they told us it stopped the pins and needles, they told us we were faking.
same here
Talitha Sewell Ow, 'bout ye miss Smith com' sit on ye floor with 'eggs bloody crossed.
Translation to non-English accent: how about you miss smith come sit on the floor with your god damn legs crossed.
LiEs
I literally knew what Dodie was talking ab when she said she broke her arm 😂 (I’m American) We would all sit on the mat, but because I broke my arm, I got to sit on a chair and I literally felt like a 1st grade queen 😂 it felt like so much power lol.
My school in the midlands (uk) had milk when we were in reception (first year of school) and if you were the milk monitor you had to go and get the cartons of milk from the office. 😂 it was a prestigious role 😂
Beth Louise
We had the same things I'm from the northwest but our parents paid for it it was like 11 quid for me and my sister a week I think
Same here, we also were gave a carrot for a snack too o,o
same in wales

Ayye I’m from the midlands

I’m thirteen and they are at least 7 years older than me and we sang all those songs when I was in primary school

Jessica Leonas ya! Lollll

I'm a spring chicken, I'm yellow and small, my feathers are fluffy and their keeping me warm! My legs are not long so I'll never be tall! But I'm a real, spring, chicken and I having a ball!
Chicken, I'm a chicken and I'm having a ball! (Dun)

+Izzy this was one of my favourite songs!! we learnt in choir before the rest of the school and those in the choir sang along when the teacher was playing it for everyone - that's what it was to be cool!!
On Monday he gave me the gift of love
Tuesday peace came from above
On Wednesday he told me to have more faith
On Thursday he gave me a little more grace
On Friday he told me to watch and pray
On Saturday he just what to say
On Sunday he gave me the power divine
Just to let my little light shine
Yaaaaaaaa 😂
THAT WAS AT SUNDAY SCHOOL YAASSS
My shit in primary school
I never sang hymns in primary school
It was always
“Wake up wake up give yourself a shake up get your body moving”
SAME
aesthetic kpopper that song oh myy
I remember hating Wake Up And Shake Up! I died while dancing... "It will make you more awake" the teachers said but it made me more tired than anything!
aesthetic kpopper we had the most ridiculous versions of this😂 it got so ridiculous
Same
When the year 5s and 6s were missing and the year 4s and 3s got to sit on the benches for one assembly were the gs

Any one from England remember the song that went "from the tiny ant (from the tiny ant), to the elephant (to the elephant)" and was like a call and response?
Same
I loved that song in reception 😂
OMGGG YESS the memoriesss
YES OMG
YESS
He's got the whole world in his hands he's got the whole world in his hands (WE USED TO SCREAM THE LAST BIT OF THE SONG IT WAS GREAT)
Oml yaaaas
HES GOT THE WIND AND THE RAIN IN HIS HANDS
Rebecca Robinson I remember that one and same
In my school... We did every prayer in school assembly. We had a 10minute prayer which included prayers from every major religion Hindu, muslim, Sikhs and Christians. I never realized how diverse it was until i got older. We did it our whole school life.
Primary School assemblies were really fun. But Secondary school ones were funnyyy. I think it was just my school. So in year 9 there was an outbreak of weed brownies and everyone was taking them. The teachers found out and we had an assembly on them and it was just our year. Before the assembly one of my friends ate one. And half way threw the assembly he fainted because of the brownie and honestly it was one of the most funniest things that ever happened. He was fine btw
My songs:
•When it's a rainy day
•Wake up! Wake up!
•Leavers song
•School rules song
Only songs I remember 🤗
BISEXUAL ALIAN
The songs I remember are...
Cre-a-tivity
Stronger
Build up
You are a star
They were all terrible cheesy songs, lol
Oh god the school rules song! I remember that. Also "please miss" - a song about students complaining about each of these and the teacher basically saying shut up
We did wake up wake up and the school rules song
School rules song was one of the best songs we ever sung
As in
This is our leavers song,
We’re proud of what we’ve done,
Many happy times we’ve had,
And many songs we’ve sung!
Is that the same one?
The awareness thing in primary school was the life bus with Harold the giraffe
Zebras 724 omg yesssss !!! The life education bus yes and the plastic body that used to light up when you touched it and the tv and you watched a little video of Harold 💗
Hajra Talib yesss
Zebras 724 The Alec Caravan!
YEEESSSSS
That is the only time where I feel free
Did nobody else have the Lord's prayer song?
"Our Father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name..."
Omg we had to sing that at the end of every assembly
Yep, that's Catholic primary for you. (despite like 80% of the kids not even being Christian)
Not singing but we would say it
I didn't, that sounds sooo fun lmao, but my school wasn't *technically* a religious school (except we sang tons of other Christian songs for kids lmao)
Our father who art in heaven. Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses. So we will forgive those that trespass against us. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. If thine is the kingdom the power and the glory. Forever and ever. Amen.
Britten did everyone have a projector for the song or is it just my school
Do you know the harvest samba and lord of the dance
I had a projector for assembly
omg the harvest samba was my *JAM*
I AM THE LORD OF THE DANCE SAID HE
Ya goose life yeah we diddd
HARVEST SAMBA
I wasn't expecting to be able to relate with so many fellow Brits in the comments section... I never knew that things were so similar for most religious schools!
Rebecca O'Donovan British schools in general are all basically the same 😹
Most schools are(were) C of E.. (Church of England) decent low level relegion based on tea and jumble sales to raise money for a church roof. I am a heavy metal fan, but I still remember the hymn's fondly. Could probably sing most of them, and recite the lord's prayer, yes that one with the trespassing in!
haha sameee
anyone remember 'SHINE JESUS SHINE' (To all British people)
OMG! YESSSSS! THAT WAS MY FAVOURITE HYMN WHEN I WAS A KID! (is that sad?) lol
FILL THIS LAND WITH THE FATHER'S PRAISES!
WE HAD ACTIONS TO IT AND IT WAS MY SHIT IN RECEPTION
Fill this land with the father's glory
Blaze spirit blaze
Maisie Feek SAME!!
Evan joked about the final countdown being played as we walked into assembly.... I vividly remember this song playing for some of ours
"We are the children of (insert school name here)
we take pride in the thing we do
Learning together and having fun"
Anyone remember that song?
MollyWilkinsonTV who's for a good day? EVERYONE
I didn't know every school done that stealing b**ches
What the fuck the head teachers used to tell us they thought it up mother fuckers 😠😕
But as a throw back
WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF SOMETHING LEARNING TOGETHER AND HAVING FUN WHO'S FOR A GOOD DAY EVERY ONE
I remember this sometimes it just appears in my head. I can actually see my primary school from my bedroom which makes it worse XD
I rember being year 6 and sitting on the benches and looking down at everyone sitting one the floor was the best😂
julia gebska every girl would do the girls hair in front of her 😂
WAIT. DID ANYONE SING " if i were a butterfly" AND THEN YOU'D HAVE THE KANAGROO AND ELEPHANT AND DANCE MOVES AND ANYONE?

Learning together and having fun. Who's for a good day EVERYONE!!" You can imagine how that went down with 60 bored 11 yr olds
Kate Millward Omg yasss. Give it 1 give it 2 give it 1 2 3 😂😂

A little bit of kindness
Busy bodies
When it's a rainy day

Let's remember to be grateful
What goes in must come out (everyone made fun of the name)
The one that was like *put your hands together, together together everyone*
The leavers song
*Who put the hump upon the camel, who put the neck on the giraffe.*
There are loads of others but these are the only ones I remember.
Jessie Hurtt
Put ur hands together together together
Put ur hands together everyone
Everyday…

YES
AND THERE WAS A MANNEQUIN WITH LIGHT UP ORGANS (how we weren't traumatised by that I'll never know)
