Dream Academy is a Performing Arts School offer classes from 18 months right
through to adults. We provide workshop style classes consisting of Singing,
Dance and Drama to give a full creative experience for all performing arts
students. All students perform a live summer show each year to give our students
the platform to present their new found confidence and skills. We are also
involved in varying external projects in Kent including; charity events,
community fares and much more. Becoming accustom to performing publicly from an
early age can combat issues often experienced in later life such as difficulty
speaking to strangers on the phone, performing well in job interviews and
building new relationships. Dream Academyâs core focus is to improve childrenâs
self-confidence and social skills. We feel that our Performing Arts workshops
are the perfect way for your child to develop these personal skills and
attributes. As well as being a fulfilling creative outlet for children, we have
also found that Performing Arts helps children build friendships more easily,
feel more confident with public speaking and also improves childrenâs reading
and writing skills. Performing arts help children learn important life skills.
They boost social skills, encouraging children to work with and learn from
others. They increase language skills because children are interested in
learning more about the arts and how to improve their abilities in the arts.
They help children be more tolerant of differences because the arts can immerse
them in unfamiliar cultures that span other times and other countries. Most
importantly, making and appreciating performing arts spurs curiosity, which
helps develop lifelong learners. Horizons for learning as part of the John
Hopkins School of Education released a publication showing the following: The
Arts are an essential part of public education. From dance and music to theater
and the visual arts, the arts give children a unique means of expression,
capturing their passions and emotions, and allowing them to explore new ideas,
subject matter, and cultures. They bring us joy in every aspect of our lives.
Arts education not only enhances studentsâ understanding of the world around
them, but it also broadens their perspective on traditional academics. The arts
give us the creativity to express ourselves, while challenging our intellect.
The arts integrate life and learning for all students and are integral in the
development of the whole person. The Arts communicate and speak to us in ways
that teach literacy and enhance our lives. We must continue to find a place for
arts programs and partnerships not only for what it teaches students about art,
but for what it teaches us all about the world we live in. Whether you are
