My students are always encouraged and taught to move beyond the given norms, to confront boundaries and undertake challenges that will push their learning to new heights.

Performing Arts is a creative outlet where students can freely express themselves, where creativity and imagination is celebrated.

I see the Arts as a basic entitlement of every child allowing each one to gain access to real and imaginative worlds.”
