SHINE Speech Arts & Drama

08/08/2026

Speech Arts and Drama is drama games, acting skills, learning to share poetry, scenes, and stories well! Plus, an outlet for the dramatic ones, and a cozy stretch for those less comfortable. Message me if you're interested!

Note for your calendar! :) Can't wait!

(I always wait to start until families have 2 weeks of their fall routine "under their belts"...like "Graduated entry" for kindergarten, LOL, many families thank me for this!

Congratulations to all my students and families on a rich year of Speech Arts & Drama! To those moving on, may the work we’ve done to help you grow in confidence, empathy, freedom, imagination and self-mastery continue to help you speak with power for the rest of your life. To my new students, welcome!

A special shout out to those who shared your best work ever in provincials this June. It was beautiful!

So proud of my students and delighted that you can watch my play! Check out our take on “Wind in the Willows”!

Enjoy the videos and music that you love, upload original content and share it all with friends, family and the world on YouTube.

My heart is full after a fantastic week of Speech Arts and Drama! I was literally sprinting between two theaters, a staircase apart, to see as many performances of my 70 students as I could! Grateful to be back with a real festival at UNBC. Thank you, students, for being courageous and working hard to share poems, prose, modern scenes, Shakespeare, mime, storytelling and more with power. So much growth on display!

I only wish I had time to capture photos. Thank you, families for your support and feel free to post your own pictures below if you wish!
