Yesterday at Chestnut NRP we introduced our Darwin Room children to our brand new stage and performing arts area! It was a huge success and we truly believe we have some future stars in the making 😊

Drama is a great way of introducing and sustaining social skills in any early years setting. As outside providers, our first sessions are always about reflecting on the existing social skills in a group and what settings have already established.

Drama offers many opportunities to be part of a team and to learn to empathise with others’ points of view. The pretend play is ‘practice’ for real life experience as they grow older.
