The importance of developmental drama during the pandemic

Helen O'Grady is committed to continue development, communication and social skills of all students! 

During times such as now, we find it vital for all students to continue their development, communication and social skills, while providing them a safe learning environment. Sanitising and social distancing have been integrated into the curriculum and we follow strict guidelines to keep everyone safe. Lessons are running for 60 minutes, one time per week. 

The academy uses a unique performing arts curriculum to develop ongoing confidence, self-esteem, communication and social skills. We praise individuality and creative thinking and with enthusiastic, energetic and positive teaching approach we let every student shine and find their true potential. 

The lessons include dramatic play, speech training, creative movement, scene starters, dialogue development and improvisations. The program helps develop important life skills such as Critical thinking, Teamwork, thinking out of box, problem solving, sequencing & memory skills and vocalizing thoughts and emotions. This is all done in a fun, stimulating way. 

Now more than ever, students need to interact and communicate!
