At the semester’s end, dancers perform for an audience, showcasing their progress and newfound confidence.
Drama Club
In Grade 4 Drama Club, students explore acting techniques through activities and games. Older students attend Musical Theater where they delve into dialogue, monologues, and methods such as Stanislavski and Meisner.
