Year 4 Awarded Distinctions In Their LAMDA Examinations

All 38 Year 4 pupils who took the London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art (LAMDA) examinations in January have passed with flying colours, with every pupil being awarded a distinction.
At Crescent School, children from Years 3-6 study for the examinations in their Drama lessons as part of the school’s curriculum. Drama teacher, Lizzie Woolfenden, set Year 4 the challenge of the Solo Introductory Stage Three examination. Pupils worked hard in their lessons and at home and enjoyed showcasing their skills to their parents just before they sat their exams in January.
In their examinations, they were judged on interpretation, technique and knowledge. They had to perform a poem with expression and discuss their favourite book with the examiner, including their favourite chapter and section of the book. The results were received this week, and they were outstanding.
Mrs Woolfenden, comments, “I am delighted with the children’s results. Congratulations to them all. They worked really 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 and build their confidence in public speaking, skills that will serve them throughout life. I am very proud of all our pupils."
Years 5 and 6 have their examinations next week and everyone here at Crescent School wishes them the very best of luck.
