This site is primarily for families of the Eastern Suburbs Branch of the Academy to provide you with relevant information regarding commencing drama classes and to keep you up to date during the year.
As you may be aware, the programme we offer in the Academy is one of self-development. Our prime aim is to give children on-going confidence and skill in verbal communication.
To begin, please scroll down & read information on the HOME PAGE first.
Home Page: here you will find general information that relates to all Studios including: enrolment information, costs, the most recent Newsletter, our "Refer a Friend" form, plus a general overview of what we do in class for each age group.
The Studio your child will be attending is located at the top of the Home Page. Here you will find specific information relating to your child's class at that location which is updated as applicable during the year.
If you have a question or need further information, please contact Principal, Merylena Sulak directly, so that she can upload the answer directly to your applicable Studio.
We look forward to creating some amazing memories for your children
and seeing you in class very soon!
