Ben will be going to Orewa College on Wednesday 7th February to enroll and choose the subjects he hopes to study in Sixth Form. Everyone has to study English, Maths and Science, his preferences are; History, Classical Studies (Ancient History), Media Studies, New Zealand Studies, Drama & Theatre Arts, Information & Communication Management and Social Studies (Sociology). We'll get him to write a blog post to let you know which options/subject he chooses to study and what Orewa College life is like being in the Sixth Form there, in comparison to John Hampden Grammar School.
Both boys are quite pleased that they get to wear T-shirt, shorts and sandals for their school uniforms, it's all quite relaxed over here, so no ties, long sleeved shirts or blazers!!
Josh will be going to the Corelli Academy of Performing Arts on Wednesday 7th February. He will be studying a full academic curriculum of IGCSE subjects in addition to; voice production, theatre skills, improvisation and mime, characterisation & accents, musical theatre physical training and building a classical repertoire. He will enjoy the one-to-one acting technique coaching with opportunities to join in lunchtime and evening performances each week. He's very excited at this amazing opportunity and we look forward to hearing about it from him. We'll get him to write a blog post to let you know how he's getting on.
