Drama Role-Play
3 - 5 year olds
Our Mission: To provide a positive and inclusive environment where young people are empowered, build self-confidence and develop essential life-skills through participation in the performing arts.
Drama Role-Play classes will begin in Term 1, 2027
Focus of a Drama Role-Play Class
In our Drama Role-Play classes children use stories and picture books as inspiration to spark their imagination, and then use drama. role-playing and storytelling techniques, to create their own characters and stories.
Children will have fun being different characters, as they learn drama and characterisation techniques, build confidence and express themselves in a supporting and safe environment.
Children Will Learn:
Characterisation Skills: Develop characterisation skills using movement and voice
Improvisation and Imagination: Imagine scenarios and use improvisation and role-play to act out scenes and events..
Storytelling Skills: Understanding narrative structure (beginning, middle, and end) by devising and acting out stories.
Early Learning Educator: All of our early learning drama classes are developed and delivered by BJ Anyos. BJ is the Early Learning Coordinator at Questacon, where she has worked for 24 years, and is one of Canberra’s leading early learning educators.
Parent/Carer Participation: All classes for children aged between 3 to 5 years of age are designed to be enjoyed with their parents and caregiver.When caring adults become active play partners, they greatly increase the educational value of the activity while boosting their child's confidence, language skills, and emotional connection. Therefore, children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
