DRAMA & COMMUNICATION PROGRAMMES

Following PlayClub, your child will be ready for our range of specially-designed Drama & Communication Programmes which encompasses Speech and Drama. At Julia Gabriel, our children love our Speech and Drama programmes because we teach communication, problem-solving and group dynamics skills through the exciting medium of drama tools such as poetry, theatre, mime, puppetry, role-play, masks, story-telling, reading aloud and creative writing, creating an environment that promotes the use of imagination and creativity, and enjoyment of rhythm, sound and language.

Sounds fun? It is. Yet at the same time, we take our Speech and Drama learning seriously too. To guide the progress of our students, our Speech and Drama Programmes can prepare your child for the Trinity College London Speech Communication Arts syllabus. At the end of a full year of attendance, our Speech and Drama Students from Primary 1 onwards are also assessed by visiting assessors from the Julia Gabriel Speech and Communication Arts Board or the Trinity College London for graded achievement awards each year.
