Drama

We believe that the skills rehearsed and refined on stage are essential to take forward into life: being able to speak with confidence; understanding how you are perceived by others and the ability to work creatively and negotiate with others.

At Riverside, we value the skills, confidence and independent opinions which are built though drama. We recognise that performance is an integral part of this and so every year group has the chance to participate in a musical production, each year.

At times, drama is also used to enhance the English curriculum, which allows children the opportunity to explore characters and motives, beyond the realms of the classroom.
