Peter Pan drama holiday course

Kings College School, West Road hosts both of Perform's weekly drama programmes: the 4–7s class and the 7–12s class, each following a curriculum shaped around where children are developmentally rather than shoe-horning mixed abilities into a single track.

Every session combines drama, dance and singing. For the 4–7s, a class moves through three sections: physical warm-up games and yoga-inspired movement, which build coordination, balance and core stability; specially composed songs and tongue-twisters, which boost confidence, concentration and communication; and character explorations, storytelling and role-play improvisations, which develop imagination and speaking skills. This summer the 4–7s theme is Mermaids & Pirates. The 7–12s, meanwhile, are working through The Dream — Perform's take on A Midsummer Night's Dream — structured around acting and improvisation, movement and dance, and speech and singing. Class size is capped at 22 children, and two Perform staff members run every session.

The confirmed booking at Kings College School right now is the summer holiday course: Peter Pan, running Monday 3rd to Friday 7th August, 10am–3pm. Open to children aged 4–10, it can be booked as a three-, four- or five-day option and will be run by Lauren and Sophie, with Area Partner Oliver overseeing the week.

Perform uses a rolling curriculum, so when regular term-time classes open at this venue, children can join at any point rather than waiting for a fixed start date. Each week, parents receive a personalised written feedback form from their class Producer — signed by Principal Lucy Quick — along with a weekly email detailing that session's focus.
