Congratulations to our Year 12 Drama students who recently undertook their Practical HSC Drama Exam. Our Year 9, 10 and 11 Drama students had the privilege of being the audience for these performances and I know that they were amazed by the talent shown.

Both Group Performances, ‘The Prefects’ and ‘Cool Mums’ demonstrated outstanding devising skills and performance technique. All students chose Performance for their Individual Projects, and had a diverse range of topics and characters. 

All students are to be commended for the time and effort they put into these performances both in class, and in their own time. Their presentation in this exam was exceptional, and the College is very proud of their efforts.

Here is a message from one of our Year 11 Drama students, recounting her experience as an audience member; 

During the Year 12 Drama Practical examination, I had the privilege of witnessing a diverse array of performances, each showcasing a wide range of theatrical skills and styles. From individual student presentations to group performances, Year 12 students demonstrated the remarkable capabilities of each performer, offering our class an exciting preview of what our upcoming HSC year will entail.

I found myself thoroughly enjoying every performance, each of which exuded a creative flair and an evident dedication to their performance. In particular, the group performance stood out for its remarkable display of collaboration. It was evident how these students seamlessly worked together, and this unity was beautifully reflected in their performance, underscoring the essence of what drama brings to our college.

During this experience, I learnt about the process of HSC Drama. The major work is not just performing, as there are many components to it. The most important lesson I learnt while watching year 12 is the value of working with your class to push each other to achieve our best potential. This whole experience really showed me why I love drama!
