Looking for a Charles Darwin assembly? This PowerPoint introduces pupils to the life and scientific impact of Charles Darwin, tracing his journey from a curious child in Shrewsbury to one of the most influential naturalists in history. It explains how his voyage on HMS Beagle sparked his interest in fossils, unique species such as the Galapagos finches, and the idea that animals change over time. The assembly outlines how these observations led to his groundbreaking theory of evolution by natural selection, published in On the Origin of Species in 1859, and describes the controversy and eventual scientific acceptance of his ideas. It also touches on Darwin’s family life at Down House, his contributions to modern biology, and how he is honoured today, including the celebration of Darwin Day. Overall, it provides a clear, engaging overview of Darwin’s work and why he remains a key figure in science.
