Imagine your child growing in confidence...

Imagine your child growing in confidence as they explore their creativity through drama!

Perform Australia's Speech Bubbles programs is a fantastic weekly 45-minute speech and drama class in school terms.


In this age group, your child has an innate ability to be creative! Drama is the perfect activity to ignite creativity.

How does it work? 

Each weekly lesson is themed around a phonic sound (e.g. b, p, i, etc), which supports what children are learning at school and preschool. The teacher guides students through a series of drama activities involving creative play, improvisation and storytelling relating to the phonic sound. Throughout each lesson, children develop their self-expression as they  enact a range of characters, actions and emotions.

Your child may:

  • Act out characters from their world and their imagination
  • Learn poems
  • Work on speaking in front of others
  • Refine pronunciation through tongue twisters and other vocal exercises
  • Generate ideas for storytelling games.

Children also work towards a small performance for parents at the end of some terms. Performances are very challenging for 4-6 year-olds, as so many skills need to be exercised at once:

  • Listening for your cue
  • Staying focused
  • Spatial awareness
  • Speaking loudly enough for the audience to hear
  • Remembering lines

Plus, dressing up in costume makes everything so much more exciting!

What parents say

My child started speaking at almost 5 and has confidence issues around speaking and answering questions verbally. His Speech Bubbles class has not only increased his confidence and ability, but it has increased his social skills and ability to work as part of a team. A great class all around! Thanks!"
— Kimberley, parent
