10 Drama

Drama is a creative process using words and movement to tell a story through performance. Students will explore a number of ways to create and respond to Drama. They will learn a range of techniques associated with the voice and body. Students will learn how to develop theatre conventions to produce creative and effective drama, think creatively and develop communication, confidence and leadership skills. As there is a strong group work component, students are expected to maintain a very high rate of attendance and must come prepared for every lesson. It leads on to further study Drama at NCEA levels 1, 2 and 3.
