The Dramatic Arts has a strong reputation at school, Regional and State levels for being innovative and of the highest standard.  Drama allows boys freedom of expression, a chance to indulge their imaginations and be projected into other realities.  Learning experiences are provided which involve the intellect, emotions, imagination and body, and engage the whole person.

Our students are encouraged to express their creativity and individuality.  Self-confidence, motivation and self-esteem are developed through the devising, workshopping, rehearsing and performing of individual and collaborative works. Through the collaborative nature of the elective, we encourage our students to explore social, cultural, ethical and spiritual beliefs and celebrate diversity.

Our Drama curriculum encompasses a body of knowledge including conventions, history, skills and methods of working and includes such content as Improvisation and Playbuilding, Movement, Text as performance, Mask, Design, Puppetry and Inanimate Theatre, Video and Filmmaking …. Students attend workshops and excursions/incursions throughout the year to supplement the curriculum being taught so as to expose them to a variety of theatre experiences.
