DRAMA REPORT: IN THE PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE

Want excitement? Want exhilaration? Then you need Drama! Every day, in every lesson, Drama students 
are provided with the unique ability to step into the shoes of others; to experience other worlds that can only be located somewhere deep within our imaginations. Escape the known, the familiar and journey to the other side of mundane on a voyage of self-discovery.

Build your confidence! Build better relationships with your peers and teachers! Be the best you can be!

Drama students at Aquinas are the types of students who go on to be the Captains of the College, the OP1 students and the various senior leaders and House leaders.

With record numbers of senior students selecting Drama as one of their elective subjects, now is the perfect time to join.
