Drama
The stage is like a second home to many of our students - and our Drama Department champions acceptance, creativity, confidence and individuality.
St George's offers a comprehensive Drama program in which students learn the fundamentals of acting, voice and movement as well as the technical skills required to put on a successful production.
Students frequently use their own time, before, during and/or afterschool, to develop their practical and written application and to simply "hang out", building the inclusive community at the school.
From classes to lunchtimes and site-specific showcase performances, students have many opportunities to showcase their creativity to their peers, friends, family and the wider community.
Whether it's a classic play or an original production, the drama department strives to bring something new and exciting to the stage while cultivating a safe learning environment.
Drama can be studied at university entrance level in Senior School.
