Drama

Drama is for everyone, from those seeking fun and confidence, to aspiring actors pursuing their craft.

• Junior Drama

  • From Years 3 to 6, children can take part in after-school drama clubs. These programs teach core stagecraft skills: characterisation, blocking, vocal projection, physical expression, storytelling and collaboration. Each semester concludes with a showcase in our Drama Studio.
    
  • In Year 6, students work across three terms towards the Junior School Production, rehearsing weekly after school. They can participate in acting and singing roles, with more than 90% of the Year 6 cohort taking part. Recent Junior productions have included  Aladdin, Finding Nemo, and Alice in Wonderland.

• Senior Drama

  Opportunities expand through Middle School and into Senior College:

  • For students in Years 7 and 8, an after-school drama club is offered to build core skills and facilitate a fun pathway into elective Drama.

  • In Years 9 – 12, Drama is available as an elective, culminating in the HSC Drama course.

  Students may audition for the annual Senior Musical (Years 7–12), a large-scale production involving more than 100 students in acting, singing, dancing and technical support. Past successes include Oliver!, Wicked, Singin’ in the Rain, Jesus Christ Superstar,  We Will Rock You!, and Mamma Mia!

  For those focused purely on acting, the Senior Drama Production (Years 9 – 11) provides a smaller-scale performance experience each year.

  Productions have ranged from The Great Gatsby  to  Sherlock Holmes and  The Complete Works of William Shakespeare.
