Speech and Drama

Each week we focus on acting, drama games, chants and exercise. Students learn script work and roleplay aiding their articulation and memory skills. By role-playing characters, this enables students to think about real-life scenarios and performing under pressure. These elements also help promote self-confidence, pronunciation, and communication skills.

In script work, students explore enigmatic characters through acting brought to life by themselves; this encourages facial expressions, use of body language, and stimulating an active imagination.

Singing

Each week students learn articulation in singing, whilst being introduced to appropriate pop, rock and musical theatre songs, singing exercises and vocal warm ups.

The key element to our singing class is the same element as how we approach poetry - repetition. Learning by repetition enables our students to sharpen their brains and strengthen their memory skills whilst they are too busy having fun.

These appropriate pop, rock, and musical theatre songs help aid their listening skills while exploring multiple themes, genres, objectives, and styles.
