Three stages, one program
Every student moves through the same program at the right pace for their age. Pick a stage below to see what a term looks like.
Basic stage skills, verbal development and creative storytelling. Students build confidence speaking and performing in front of an audience for the first time.
Enrol nowBuilds on Stage One skills with more detailed script work, original devised pieces and stronger character development.
Enrol nowMonologues, duologues and in-depth characterisation. Improvisation is used as a technique for story development and script writing.
Enrol nowPerformance skills for everyday life
Every class is written and developed in-house, with a focus on verbal communication that shows up well beyond the stage.
Known by name
Classes are capped at 20 students with a teacher and an assistant, so every child gets seen and supported.
Learning through play
Skills are built through games and improvisation, not drills, so students learn by doing and don't notice the practice as practice.
Our own curriculum
Staff write and develop the program themselves, tailored to Bendigo students rather than a franchise script.
Speech, not just stagecraft
Every lesson builds verbal communication and speech skills alongside performance technique.
A safe space to try
A respectful, positive environment where trying something new and getting it wrong is part of learning.
A fresh friend group
Students meet kids from other schools, widening their social circle outside the regular school day.
