Happy New Year
to all our new and returning parents and students!
We are looking forward to a productive
and fun filled year at Helen O' Grady Drama Academy!
Did you know the prime aim of our programme is to empower our students by building confidence and communication skills? We do this
using an international drama programme which includes speech, movement and improvisation
Term 1 is
always super exciting for all the age groups!
The highlight for our Lower
Primary classes for ages 5-8 and our Upper Primary classes
for ages 9-12 will be Dress Up and Prop Days!
This means they have the chance to
dress up as a character or bring a prop to class which they can use to enhance
their performance in either their improvisation or their high impact activity -
the imagination and creativity that goes into the outfits and props is just
fabulous!
Let's take a look back at the some of
the outfits that were created last year... ....all you need a little
effort and a vivid imagination....
Our Kindy
Classes for ages 3-6 years will be
exploring the themes "All About Me",
"Pets" and "Let's
go to Work".
They learn important life skills such
as listening, sharing, taking turns and of course important speech skills such
as pronunciation and articulation.
Last but not least our amazing Youth
Theatre students, ages 13 -18 and our Adult class
will be delving into some fabulous Mini Scripts and creating their own
entertaining improvisations!
Our Youth Theatre and Adult classes
feature a dynamic, developmental drama programme that ensures all students have
a great time. No matter what level a student starts at, our curriculum will
greatly assist them in improving their creativity, confidence and communication
skills.
All the very best for 2020 everyone!!!
In
the words of our awesome Jhb North West Principal, Kerry Chapman,
"May
we continue to grow children that make our world a better place".
