Q. How many parents does it take to make a school joke book?
A. Far too many, that’s why no one’s ever done it before!
‘Who Wants To Hear A Joke?’ Asks Neil Scott the SKIPPS school Principle.
These are the six words that are guaranteed to turn our Friday morning school assemblies into a screaming, seething pit of calling out, laughing and other behaviours not generally condoned in a primary school. This Friday assembly tradition is a great example of the SKIPPS culture. Make school fun and they will come.
“Me, Me, Me”, they call out enthusiastically and the jokes go a little something like this:
Why did the bubblegum cross the road?
Because it was stuck to the chicken’s foot.
Gus. 5 years old
Why was 6 afraid of 7?
Because 7, 8, 9.
Carolina. 6 years old
