| On Tuesday 19th and Wednesday 20th November, students from the ILC
and Mainstream classes in Years 4 - 7 performed their Street Theatre acts
to celebrate International Children’s Day. Each group, which included
students from both the Intensive Language Centre and mainstream classes,
learned to work collaboratively within those groups.
They learned about the genre of street performance, audience interaction
skills, voice projection, the elements of and reasons for exaggerated and
individualised costuming and make-up and the need to be aware of your audience
‘in the round’. They then used their rhythm and juggling skills learned
earlier in the year to plan and perform their act to be performed on the
day. Other groups built up their act around their own specific skills
such as dancing or musical instruments.
