Everyone sees drama from his own perspective.

Students in Primary, Elementary and Junior High are exposed to various aspects of Dramatic Arts and perform in class and school-wide productions during the school year. To augment the curriculum, local performance groups make presentations at the school throughout the year to expose students to the many aspects of drama.

In Primary, students perform in class-organized plays during the year. Primary and Elementary students showcase their musical and drama skills at the annual Music/Drama performance held in March each year. Junior High students stage an annual production.

Seussical_CastDrama encourages students to explore a variety of dramatic roles and develop a range of dramatic skills. In the Junior High school drama programme, students experience drama and theatre through:

  • movement – physical, nonverbal expression
  • speech – exploration of talking and speaking to communicate ideas effectively
  • improvisation / acting – acting out an idea or situation
  • theatre studies – an introduction to the elements of drama and theatre
  • technical theatre – stage construction and the use of sound, lighting, makeup, costumes, sets and props
