World Theatre/Drama & Education Day

Today, we celebrate Educational Theatre/Drama, an approach that transcends the boundaries of traditional teaching.
Just like Ancient Greek Theatre, which was also used for educational purposes, modern Educational Theatre/Drama is a multifaceted method that combines learning with experience. It cultivates the mind while nurturing the soul.
Some of its key benefits include:
✔️ Fostering Critical Thinking
It promotes creativity, imagination, and problem-solving skills.
✔️ Emotional Development
It strengthens empathy, self-confidence, and resilience.
✔️ Social Skills
It enhances collaboration, communication, and the understanding of others' thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
✔️ Language Proficiency
It supports language practice through meaningful and engaging real-life scenarios.
✔️ Experiential Learning
It actively involves students, encouraging them to participate creatively and explore diverse perspectives.
Educational Theatre/Drama addresses significant social issues, sparks dialogue, and empowers participants to envision and create a better world.
Zachariou FLS continues to design and implement drama-based lessons that promote the holistic education of children.
