PERFORMING ARTS
Our enriching Performing Arts programme (theatre, music and dance) makes a significant impact on the lives of our pupils. Drama helps the children to communicate effectively through words and body language. Our dancers express emotion and feeling through ballet, contemporary, jazz and tap dance and our musicians learn interaction, co-ordination, self-discipline and expression.
It is said that children who take part in Performing and Creative Arts may also improve their performance in their academic subjects too and that they have enhanced cognitive, motor and social development.
For those who don’t want to be centre stage but want to be a part of the action, pupils are given an opportunity to help
the director backstage as crew or with the lighting, costumes, music, etc.
Our children develop a love for the arts. And if there is one thing we have turned to during the extraordinary times in which we find ourselves, it is music on Spotify or performances from the National Theatre or the English National Ballet... the arts in general.
