It’s Your Easter is a spring term project which aims to share the key message of Christianity, Jesus’ death and resurrection. The programme consists of a whole school assembly which presents the message of Easter in a fun way through interactive drama and music for all school pupils.

We also offer a Easter Discovery Lesson for Year 5 pupils. This is a one hour drama discovery lesson in the hall where Year 5s explore different points in the Easter story, from Palm Sunday through to the resurrection. Photography is used to capture pupils’ creative work enabling it to be displayed to the whole school in the form of a video.

Last year we went into 18 schools, here is what some of the children said:

“I am very grateful that you came here and I hope you enjoyed it. My favourite bit was watching the video at the end. I really enjoyed it and so did the rest of us. Thank you so much for coming.”

“My favourite part was making the video even though I was a donkey. I learnt a lot about the Easter story and what happened to Jesus.”

“I learnt the Easter story and why we have Easter. I just want to ask you a question: Do you like Easter?”

We certainly do like Easter here at YoYo and look forward to sharing the hope and grace it conveys with more children this coming Spring.
