Wierda Park Drama Classes Nearly full!!







The Helen O Grady Drama Academy operates its drama classes in Wierda Park at the Reformed Church on the corner of Willem Botha and Meyer Streets. The classes are very popular with children attending from all different areas in Centurion and even as far as Laudium!
They are learning so many important skills while having enormous amounts of fun!! The children whose home language is Afrikaans have really improved their English skills!
