On 19th March, the LAMDA pupils took to the stage in the Prep School Hall to share their recitals in front of an audience!
The pupils performed a variety of poetry and monologues off by heart with such enthusiasm and confidence. It was wonderful to see the children individually own their space on the stage and their unique personalities shine through in each performance.
By learning the words of a fun poem by the likes of Michael Rosen or Matt Goodfellow the LAMDA pupils are developing the ability to express themselves clearly while also improving their memorisation and recall. As well as building confidence, LAMDA lessons also develop a variety of personal skills that contribute to all-round success; skills that are applicable across the curriculum and in the wider spectrum of their lives.
Recently, the children have been developing their performance and communication techniques including: projection, use of pitch/pace/pause, body language and facial/vocal expression in order to create an engaging recital for an audience. Therefore, the showcase was a great opportunity for them to put these skills to practice, particularly with their LAMDA exam fast approaching in the Summer Term.
A huge congratulations to all the children involved and a big thank you to all the lovely parents who came along to support.
