A little Hebron in our Hearts



It’s amazing how teaching children can pull on every heart string. And not because we’re being dramatic, us, never. We simply cannot walk away from a class without leaving a bit of ourselves behind.


The principal of Helen O’ Grady Northern Suburbs and Winelands also teaches. Every Thursday afternoon for the last few years sees Mari drive through the gates of Hebron Christian Academy where she is met with enthusiastic, energetic, animated and lively students ready to end their school day on a dramatic high.





Despite the class growing in numbers each term and each year Mari has kept the class personal and each interaction special backed up by world-renowned teaching methods and a stellar curriculum. 

We believe the relationship between Helen O’ Grady and Hebron Christian School will continue to grow from strength to strength.

Proper Preparation with Props



Prop Snippets are great tools for students to learn and experience engaging not only with other students but also with objects.
The Prop Snippets are designed and executed in a way that allows students to think broadly and creatively and link an inanimate object to a piece of drama.
It’s been received with great enthusiasm in both Lower and Upper Primary level classes.

Students in the Upper Primary group at Bellville Christian Academy perform with one of the easier prop challenges: A book


This also makes for great preparation for the end of year productions where students are exposed to real theater practices using costumes and props during their performances.
We’re so thrilled to be able to give to our students the preparation they need to extend their on stage careers beyond our classes.
