At Hoi Polloi Academy, we believe in the power of the performing arts to inspire and empower young minds. Now, three weeks into the school year, we’re thrilled to share the success of our journey so far, managing the Junior School Theatre Programme at SPMC for the second year running.
A Creative Kickoff to the Academic Year
We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Fr Clinton and Ms Stef for welcoming us back into the SPMC community. It’s been fantastic to see our students—both new and returning—dive into their drama lessons with enthusiasm. From exploring movement and voice work to discovering the magic of theatre, it’s been a joy to watch their creativity flourish.
Leading the Theatre Programme
This year, we continue to oversee the Junior School Theatre Programme. Ms. Lara Agius has been guiding J1, J2, and J3 on Tuesdays, while our Principal Mr Marco Calleja is working with J4, J5, and J6 on Wednesdays. Our mission remains the same: to nurture creativity, teamwork, and a love for the performing arts within a supportive and fun environment.
Unlocking Academic Potential Through the Arts
At Hoi Polloi Academy, we believe in a holistic approach to education. The performing arts are not only a form of expression but also a valuable tool to help students unlock their academic potential. Through a cross-curricular approach, we integrate theatre into other areas of learning, helping students build confidence, improve communication, and develop creative thinking skills.
After-School HPA Classes in Full Swing!
In addition to the morning theatre programme, we’ve also had two exciting weeks of our HPA after-school classes. Students from across various classes have joined us, donning their HPACyan and HPALavender uniforms, and it’s been an incredible start! The after-school classes offer a unique opportunity for students to delve deeper into the performing arts, combining acting, singing, movement, and music in a fun, holistic way. We can’t wait to see how they progress in the coming weeks.
Looking Ahead
We are excited to continue this creative journey with SPMC. With three weeks already behind us, the enthusiasm from both students and educators has us looking forward to what’s next. Thank you to the entire SPMC community for your continued support, and here’s to many more weeks of artistic exploration and academic achievement!
Stay tuned for more updates from the Hoi Polloi Academy team.
