Creative Drama

Here the students start to acquire the basic skills of drama: the need for clear speech and an expressive voice and body. Using games and group improvisations the students work towards developing good listening skills, turn taking and the need to work together as a team.

We also encourage an appreciation and love of literature. The children learn through improvised drama, music, mime and movement drawn from favourite books, poems and stories. They start within the safety net of the group and as self-confidence develops, begin to take on individual roles. Aims are to develop, self-confidence, sociability, expression, creativity and imaginative skills.
