Junior Drama - Mrs Jordaan

Over the past three weeks, Junior Drama Club learners have been exploring the basics of drama through fun, interactive activities. Sessions have focused on using the three drama tools, namely body, voice, and feelings, through movement games, emotion statues, freeze-frames, and group storytelling. More recently, learners have begun working with their voices, practising clear projection and articulation using face warm-ups, tongue twisters, and group poetry exercises. The Junior Drama Club is currently preparing a poem to perform at assembly on 20 March in celebration of Human Rights Day. The learners have shown wonderful confidence, creativity, and enthusiasm throughout the process!
