This is a weekly class to introduce students to all aspects of Speech and Drama, to develop creativity, build
confidence, and enhance the technique of public performance. We all develop at various rates and with this
in mind we aim to hone and develop the skills of every student at an optimal pace to suit their emotional
and developmental well-being.
Classes focus on acting, improvisation, role play, characterisation,
effective communication, theatre games, mime, puppetry, public speaking, speech work, storytelling and much
more.
Our classes equip each student with many important tools to help them achieve their full
potential which will support them throughout their lives. While learning a range of techniques, students
develop their personality, learn to work in a team, interact with peers, make decisions and most importantly
have fun.
We create a safe environment for students to express themselves without feeling judged, building their confidence and developing new skills.
By encouraging the student to think outside the box, we analyse how to look at situations from all points of view.
Both verbal & non-verbal communication, teamwork, conflict resolution and active listening is focused on.
We create a safe environment for students to express themselves without feeling judged, building their confidence and developing new skills.
We use a variety of speech exercises and theatre games to work on the voice.
We encourage the process of discussion, brainstorming, making choices and negotiating to stimulate the student to develop a greater empathy with people they meet in their daily lives.
