Drama Parent Support Group

Get involved and enjoy the rewarding feeling of being a Drama parent volunteer.

With increasing opportunities in 2022 for our students to participate in Drama events, competitions, and performances, (especially after two years of cancelled or limited events), you can help them make up for lost opportunities by volunteering as little or as much of your time and/or skills behind the scenes and backstage.

If you can only volunteer a small amount of your time, there are many opportunities to help throughout the year such as volunteering an hour or two on performance nights helping backstage with hair and make-up or serving in the refreshment stall pre-show. Or if you’re able to offer more time and skill, we would love some much-needed assistance with costuming – help with alterations (which require minimal sewing skill) through to full costume making.

If you don’t have the time to give but would still love to help, every little bit of help is appreciated and there’s little more rewarding than helping our students shine and achieve their best.

Click here if you’d like to register your interest in becoming a Drama parent volunteer or contact our 2022 Performing Arts Support Group Drama Co-ordinator, Helen Cobain (helen.cobain@gmail.com), and let her know that she can contact you when help is needed.

Drama Absences and Enrolments

If your daughter is going to be absent for a Co-curricular Drama class, please email CCSA at ccsa@pymblelc.nsw.edu.au prior so that the Drama teacher knows for planning. For Drama Festival teams in Years 5 to 11, please ask your daughter to email also to catch up on any work that has been covered as we are developing the Drama Festival/Competition performances. Any queries about joining Co-curricular Drama at any stage, please contact tsweetman@pymblelc.nsw.edu.au.

I am so excited for Term 2 in Co-curricular Drama, we have many Festival/Competitions for our Drama Festival teams, Improvisation/Theatresports and our Filmmakers are finishing their Semester 1 films for entry into external competitions, as well as our Years 10 and 11 Co-curricular Drama production of Pride and Prejudice – I look forward to seeing all theatre/filmmakers back at the start of Term 2!
