Students can sign up for clubs and co-curricular activities on SOCS from today! We are proud of the range of activities that we offer. Staff love to share their own interests with students, as well as working with external providers to extend our provision even further.

First lesson of A Level Drama! After writing out all the amazing things you might find in a piece of theatre, we stripped it all back to the absolute essentials. Peter Brook reminding us what’s crucial, as we embark on two exciting years of theatre making.

Following on from their work at Lydney Docks on Saturday, the Art students went on to enjoy a tour of St Briavels castle, Aust Beach and M Shed in Bristol. The students used rocks from the beach to work on to, depicting the industrial landscape at Bristol Docks.

We are thrilled that Issy P (Year 11) has successfully auditioned for NYMT (National Youth Music Theatre), for one of their summer productions.
An incredible achievement, as NYMT has alumni such as Eddie Redmayne, Matt Lucas and Lily James.
Well done Issy!

There are so many benefits to studying Music Theory. As well as being a requirement for some grades, a theoretical knowledge of music enables you to produce more creative, innovative and complex work.
All year groups welcome, before school, every Friday in Room 232.

[Expressive Arts at St Edward's School @SECExpressArts]

Year 12 working hard using @Team_Splendid as their practitioner. Finding the gest of their episodes so far. (And eating a lot of sweets along the way…)

[Expressive Arts at St Edward's School @SECExpressArts]

We have a had a brilliant (but exhausting) dress rehearsal for The Addams Family. Wonderful to be joined by @AhmedAAHamad (The Addams Family UK tour) to share his experience and enthusiasm.
Next stop- @Everymanchelt!

[St Edward's Senior & Sixth Form @StEdwardsChelt]

Congratulations!
We are thrilled that Georgia R (Year 12 Drama Scholar) has been cast as Sandy in the Theatre Studio production of ‘Grease’ at The Playhouse Theatre.
Can’t wait to see her in ‘Grease’? Come and see her in ‘The Addams Family’ next week. https://t.co/0PaFlPzbKf

An evening of writing lighting cues for Mrs Monk this evening. Not long to go till our production of The Addams Family graces the stage of @Everymanchelt.

We’re so lucky to have multi-talented cast members. Eliza D (Yr11) plays Mal in The Addams Family, but today she was using her DT skills to help construct the set.
Did you know about the excellent crossover between Drama and STEM?

[Expressive Arts at St Edward's School @SECExpressArts]

Eeeek! We’re excited, and a little nervous!

[St Edward's Senior & Sixth Form @StEdwardsChelt]

Just over two weeks to go until this fantastic cast takes to the stage of @Everymanchelt. Limited tickets available- book now!
