AND..... ACTION! AUTUMN CLASSES RESUME! NOW LIVE FOR BOOKING

We are delighted to announce all our local weekend centres return in Dublin, Galway, Westport and Ennis on the weekend of 25th and 26th September.

This promises to be an exciting and emotional return for everyone after all this time in lockdown, but having liased with our colleagues, school partners and reviewing the latest government advice, we are confident classes may return safely with some important social distancing and hygiene protocol in place. More specific and detailed news will be sent to parents with staff training in place this September.

Classes will be restricted. Movement also of students will be staggered in accordance with best practice so live performance and shows will be moved to Spring 2021 and this Autumn has an “in house” skills term which will be developed with a “social distance agenda”, no group assembly, small pods and groups of students and solo and bespoke theatre performance will be filmed rather than to a live audience.

We have to accept coronavirus has not gone away and the safety of our students, parents and teachers is of paramount importance to us. This will be something we have to live with in the short term. In the event of Autumn classes being cancelled, an alternative digital class will be fully operational for all age groups or a refund/credit for a future term will be in place for parents peace of mind at booking stage.

Skills for arts education have never been so important in our lifetime and in this challenging period for everyone, we have seen children and teenagers produce enormous creative joy and imaginative online scripts, poems, monologues, dance routines, songs and they fill us with hope for the future.

Let’s be positive and let Act 2 begin. Wishing you and your family a very happy summer.

Arts education for the next generation!

Best Wishes
