Chennestone Primary School
We are delighted to be working with Chennestone Primary School to offer a weekly class to children from Reception to year 6.
​
Starting in September 2024, we launched two clubs for Reception - Year 2, and for years 3-6.
The courses have gone well and we're looking forward to our end of term performances.
Courses are based on the LAMDA curriculum and our award-winning practices inspired by our West End partnerships since 2006!
Classes cover a range of drama techniques and activities to boost confidence, inspire creativity, nurture strong communication skills, and create performance opportunities.
What we've been doing in the Autumn Term
Monday Group: Autumn Term
Iwona's has been very productive and full of exploration, working on the poem The Owl And The Pussycat.
They have explored foundations of storytelling, creation of sound, puppetry, improvisation, singing, and very simple dance steps and movement.
We developed an energetic warm up routine in which "splat" is one of the highlights elements, as the group thoroughly enjoys a healthy competition!
By the end of the first half term, they had created an opening sequence for a show, turning the first verse of the poem into a song with simple dance steps.
Over the next half term, Iwona will draft a simple script inspired by the children's work in a puppetry session, and bring it to life for a performance at the end of term!
Friday Group: Autumn Term
This half term, the group hs been working on storytelling and character development.
Tom has led the group through various acting and drama techniques, such as hot-seating, to create and develop characters of the children's own invention. Through improvisation and other acting and devising techniques, they have created stories which have been developed over the past half-term.
Over the next half-term, the group will further develop these stories into a script, from which we will devel a performance to share at the end of term.
