“A swirling skirt, a pirate’s hat,
Some baggy pants and things like
that.
With a jacket, bow tie or high-heeled
shoes
We can be anyone we choose.”
This short
poem is performed at the end of the Lower Primary’s Whole Class Improv last
week. This improv will be a favourite for the students and teachers as it
reminds us of one of the great allowances of drama: to be anyone we choose.
Drama allows
our students to, for a moment, put aside worries of home and school and dig
into themselves for creativity, dreams and ideas. This space is an opportunity
for each student to be their best and see themselves at their best. This is key
to building their confidence and self-esteem and it is also key to their
understanding of themselves and the wonderful things they are able to reach for
and achieve.

What a
privilege it is for us as teachers to be a part of these journeys and what each
student grow.
