Speech and Drama Classes (Year 4 – 13)

If you’re searching for ways to help your child confidently communicate our Speech and Drama classes produce measurable results.  Focussing on both Public Speaking and Drama Performance skills, our programmes offer families an opportunity to develop skills that help students make a positive impact.

Our Speech and Drama classes offer children the opportunity to develop a lifelong love of literature, performing and speaking.  Students develop their passion through weekly classes whilst working towards Speech and Drama examinations. Some students split the school year with two terms of Public Speaking and two terms of Speech & Drama. Students are invited to sit Speech New Zealand examinations.
