Shooting Stars for 5-6 year olds

Children of a young age will love this drama class that teaches not just the basics of acting, but language and problem-solving skills which boost confidence and creativity.

By expressing themselves through games in a fun-filled group setting, children also learn to listen and tell stories that develop their imaginations. This kids’ drama classes are running on Tuesdays at Rata Studios, Wellington.
