Performing Arts

Prep-Grade 2

This term, our junior year levels have looked at how different actions or strategies affect our emotions. We have explored dance, yoga, singing and mindfulness and how these things can calm us down, help us focus, or increase our energy levels. We have read different stories and acted out different solutions to the characters' problems.

Ask your child about the different zones they can be in and what they can do to manage their emotions in those zones.

Grades 3-6

This term, our senior year levels have been exploring different acting, filming and editing techniques. They have focused on improvising different scenes, using different camera angles and using green screens to provide different backgrounds. This week they will finish editing their final piece and share it with their class.

They were also lucky enough to work with Kate Ellis, a professional acting coach and Drama teacher from Melbourne. Kate worked with our students to help them tell stories, add suspense, and make their performances as interesting as possible.
