Semester One 2023 - Drama

The whole school focus for Semester One of Performing Arts will be Drama.

During Term 1, the focus of Performing Arts at Mernda Park is for students to develop confidence and self-esteem to explore, depict and celebrate human experiences, take risks and challenge their own creativity.

Our program has a strong emphasis on student engagement through activities, games and collaborative projects.
Students will explore roles, characters, voice projection, facial expression, movement and action, with a sense of time and place.
