Drama Skills: Why are they important?

Getting to know some of our classes!

As we approach the midpoint of our first term back in Co-curricular Drama classes, we would like to take this opportunity to share more about the exciting range of classes available to our students.

One of the core offerings within our program is the Drama Skills class, available for students from Years 3 to 12. This inclusive class is open to all students, regardless of their experience or skill level. Whether your child is a complete beginner or has prior drama experience, Drama Skills provides a supportive and encouraging environment for growth.

In this class, our experienced teachers work closely with students to refine essential drama techniques. Key areas of focus include voice projection, confidence-building, and body language. These fundamental skills are critical not only in Drama but also in various aspects of everyday life, such as public speaking, leadership, and self-expression.

Drama Skills serves as the foundation of all other Drama classes offered in the Co-curricular program. By mastering the basics, students will gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of more advanced drama concepts like movement, characterisation, and narrative building. As students progress through their drama journey, these core skills will empower them to tackle more complex performances, characters, and techniques with greater ease.

Our program provides a diverse range of opportunities for students to explore different aspects of drama, from acting and improvisation to stagecraft and performance. Each class is designed to engage, challenge, and inspire, fostering both individual growth and teamwork.

We believe that every student has the potential to shine on stage and in life, and our Drama Skills class is the perfect place to begin that journey. We are excited to see the progress that our Drama Skills classes will make over the year.
