Voice Production/Elocution/LAMDA
Studying elocution, voice production and taking LAMDA exams do not involve writing, but teach vitally important life skills such as public speaking, presentation technique, voice projection and clear diction.
At Eltham College Junior School these skills are taught by Kate Crane, a professionally trained Actor and Teacher with a wealth of experience teaching drama, directing shows, voice coaching and preparing young people for LAMDA exams. Kate teaches a fun and exciting curriculum through the creative disciplines of Public Speaking, Verse and Prose, Acting and even Musical Theatre. These life skills are invaluable and build tremendous confidence, regardless of which career path a young person takes.
