Good Afternoon, Falconridge families!
Last week, our school was thrilled to welcome Quest Theatre for a week-long Drama Day residency, bringing creativity, movement, and connection into our classrooms! Each day, one of Quest Theatre’s talented artists worked with our students through interactive drama sessions designed to foster imagination, collaboration, and wellness.
Over the course of the week, students from Kindergarten through Grade 6 participated in engaging 45-minute sessions (30 minutes for Kindergarten and EES), filled with drama games and activities that encouraged creative problem solving, relationship building, and physical expression. These sessions not only supported curriculum connections but also gave students the space to take risks, build confidence, and explore new ways of learning. The energy, laughter, and teamwork we witnessed all week were truly inspiring—thank you to Quest Theatre for such a joyful and impactful experience!
