Dramatic Little Bookworms

About

Dramatic Little Bookworms

Dramatic Little Bookworms is a storybook driven drama class, which aspires to create confident and articulate storytellers and performers.

Each week our Dramatic Little Bookworms will participate in a vocal and physical warm up in order to gain focus and concentration.

 

What we do

Our Dramatic Little Bookworms will be presented with a stimulus (word, image, sound or object) to interpret. This will allow the opportunity to develop their imagination, creativity, ideas and deepen their understanding of the chosen storybook, through exploring: themes, characters, situations, social messages, meaning and alternative outcomes through Drama techniques (role play, improvisation, hot seating, freeze frames and storytelling). Our sessions are suitable for children from 0 to 8 years old.

At the end of the 5/6 Week block our Dramatic Little Bookworms will showcase their performance in front of a small audience.

Baby Massage is beneficial to both the parent/caregiver and the baby. It is the perfect opportunity to spend quality, distraction free time with your baby, developing a bond through touch and non-verbal communication.

Each week you will learn a new sequence which will be broken down into small, manageable sections so it is enjoyable for baby, but also easy enough to repeat and learn in class so you can take the new skill home with you.
