Hi Everyone!!!!
Welcome to Year 7 Performing Arts.
Mr Bartlett and Miss Shields are sharing this course and you will get to spend time with both of us learning Music, Drama and Dance.
We want to give you a taste or our passion for these subjects, and if you enjoy it over your junior years you can choose it as an option when you are in year 9.
You will be able to try out your skills in acting and performing, working with a musical instrument and testing your rhythm in both music and dance.
We hope you have a great term with us!
