Time to CELEBRATE!
Just before the Easter break 17 of my students sat their Speech and Drama exams (Grade 1 & Grade 5) with the The Leinster School of Music and Drama. It was the first exam for most of them and they ALL received FIRST CLASS HONOURS.... That is a brilliant result and I'm so proud of them. They had to memorize and perform poems, mimes, monologues and learn some theory. More photos to follow...
