Distinctions For All In Year 5's LAMDA Examinations

At Crescent School, children study for the LAMDA examinations in Drama as part of the school’s curriculum. After working hard in their lessons, building their confidence, developing character, learning how to project and developing the use of gestures, emphasis and emotion, on Tuesday 20 January, the pupils in Year 5 took the Speaking Verse and Prose Entry Level qualification. The children had prepared poems to perform and were judged on interpretation, technique and knowledge. To get ready for their examinations they had enjoyed performing for their parents in a showcase just prior to their examinations.

Drama teacher, Lizzie Woolfenden, is extremely proud. She said, “I am delighted with the children’s results, congratulations to them all. They worked hard and clearly impressed the examiner. It’s fantastic that they were all awarded distinctions. The LAMDA examinations inspire and empower children to find their voice. They develop skills that will serve them throughout life. I am very proud of them all."

Congratulations to them all. Pictured here with Mrs Woolfenden are some of the highest scoring pupils.

Year 6 have their examinations next and everyone here at Crescent School wishes them the very best of luck.
