Speech and Drama at Earth Kids

We started our kindy drama class at Earth Kids with intro activities...everyone was very excited to find out what the Marvellous Maryka had in store for them!

Then we moved onto our speech exercises- speech is a very important part of our class and we spend time practising our projection and articulation exercises.
We went to visit some interesting lands today! Fun and Fantasy is our theme this week and of course these wonderful children used their creative imaginations to make up some very creative destinations!!

Wierda Park Lower Primary on top form!

These wonderful students from our Lower Primary class (ages 5-9) are having such fun rehearsing for their upcoming production- their facial expressions and actions are priceless!
Teacher Maryka is very hands on!! The children love to see what she is going to do next!! Maryka is very passionate about  drama and the students are learning so much from her...today they learnt the importance of reacting and how acting is more about what you DO rather than what you SAY!

We have just finished classes for the term and our Wierda Park studio will reopen on Friday 14 October.

Please feel free to contact Pretoria Principal Juliet for any information or to Enrol. Email juliet@helenogrady.co.za or call 0829091630

Upcoming Year End Production

From our studios in Midrand all the way to Pretoria North we are preparing for our Year End Production at the State Theatre from 7-13 November!
This is an exciting time for students and teachers alike!
Our Brookyn studio are well on their way with rehearsals and having so much fun at the same time! After all it is not just the finished product that is important but the journey getting there - that is when we learn so many important life and theatre skills!
