It's Your Move is a summer term project aimed at Year 6 pupils who are about to make the transition of moving up to secondary school the following term.

YoYo has been running It's Your Move in primary schools across York for nine years. The project consists of a whole school assembly on the subject of 'moving on' (especially aimed those who are soon to be leaving primary school), and an interactive lesson for Year 6s to help them think through and tackle some of their thoughts or concerns about moving onto secondary school.

The underlying theme of It's Your Move assemblies and lessons which we communicate is our belief that the children can have confidence in the new challenges they face because God goes with them and has really great plans for their future.

It is also a great chance to get to know some of the children that we will see in secondary school and invite them to the clubs we run there; for them it is reassuring to know that they will meet a familiar and friendly face as they settle into their new school.

The teachers seem to really appreciate what we share with the children and are keen to have us a back again the following year.

In 2009 we took It's Your Move into 24 schools and the feedback was fantastic:

"The YoYo visit will certainly help to ease the pupils' transition into Secondary School. We would definitely invite you back again."
