Performing Arts, Media & Communication
Students interested in Performing Arts, Media & Communication develop their talents through a deeply arts-infused programme in Music, Theatre, the Visual Arts and/or Dance as well as Media and Communication. Students accepted into the programme devote a significant portion of each week in practice, rehearsal, or studio work.
Students, electing for a more Media and Communication focus, will be part of Regent’s editorial team comprising Regent Student Reporters, who produce an online and physical newspaper, podcasts and blogs which cover a range of subjects. The goal is for students to further develop skills in literacy, presentation, collaboration, and communication besides having a whole lot of fun.Art and creative thinking are present in all facets of life. Our Art curriculum, teachers, and expansive Art studios give students the opportunity to develop their creative thinking and own creative voice.
Central to school life
Art
Our Arts Department has a team of talented and passionate art teachers and allows students to experiment with a wide range of different disciplines such as fine art, digital art, textiles, sculpting, pottery and print-making! We have some outstanding wall art murals that Primary and Secondary students collaborate on around the school.
Music
Music is woven across the entire curriculum at Regent and is central to school life. Regent benefits from the Fortes’ VIP Academy for the Performing Arts and a team of professional music teachers who provide students with varied opportunities to learn a variety of musical instruments and skills.
Every student learns an instrument of his or her choice and many develop mastery and choose to prepare for the Trinity/ABRSM music exams. Gifted students are nurtured to consider music as a choice of higher study, while some choose just to have fun jamming in a band. Regardless, all students develop an appreciation of music and enhance their creativity and self-development.
Also, keep an eye out for the ‘Lunchtime Pop-Up Series‘ where our hottest musicians perform around school and delight all with their musical talents.
Drama
With a 380-seat Auditorium for the Performing Arts and inspirational drama teachers, Regent provides students with the opportunity to access, experience and contribute to various aspects of the creative process from script to stage.
All students participate in whole school theatrical productions either as performers or backstage crew.
Some of our most recent productions include Shrek and Madagascar. Our Drama students also regularly enact plays and skits and participate in inter-school competitions.
