Parent Day Presentations under way!

No time to upload photos at present, but will when the week is over.

Wednesday's Fichardtpark studio have had their Parent Day Presentation and it went swimmingly!  I love to see the pride on parent's faces as they see their children's confidence and ability to speak out clearly. As I was closing off yesterday one Dad stood up, took the floor, and gave a heartwarming speech about how much the Helen O'Grady classes have meant to his son, and how he loves the smile on his son's face on Wednesday's when he gets home from drama class, and what a wonderful influence the Helen O'Grady Drama Academy has on young people!  I was thrilled.  He couldn't have done better if I'd paid him!!  LOL!
It IS nice, every now and then, to find out how we really ARE appreciated!  A special thanks to that dad for opening up in front of all the other parents.

Brebner studio has to wait for the school's Cultural Evening to do their Presentations. It's a wonderful opportunity for the whole school, teachers included, to see the programme in action.

The Lebone Land students did a short presentation for staff and care-givers....straight after a soccer match in which one of my actors was injured. His knee was quite badly swollen but he made it through the speech items of the Presentation before he had to go off to see the nurse! What a brave lad!

Friday's Kuierhoekie, Monday's Heuwelkruin, and Tuesday's Univeersitas-Wes studios all still have Presentations coming up.  Can't wait!
