Creative Expression: At Spotlights Theatre School, we believe in the power of the performing arts to enhance creativity and imagination in young minds.

Confidence Building: Watch your little one shine on stage and develop skills that will last a lifetime. Performing in front of an audience can be a transformative experience for young children. It helps them develop self-confidence and improve their public speaking skills. Our experienced instructors create a supportive environment where every child feels valued and encouraged. Through group activities and collaborative performances, kids also develop essential social skills, learning to work as a team and support each other.
Costumed Show: The term concludes with a spectacular performance for family and friends, complete with costumes provided by Spotlights!
Make New Friends: One of the most wonderful aspects of our Mary Poppins workshops is the opportunity for children to make new friends. The shared experience of working towards a common goal fosters camaraderie and builds lasting friendships. Whether your child is naturally outgoing or a bit shy, they will find a welcoming and inclusive community at Spotlights Theatre School.

Enhancing Cognitive Development
Engaging in performing arts from a young age has numerous cognitive benefits. It helps improve memory, attention, and concentration. Learning lines, songs, and dance routines requires children to use their memory and recall abilities. It also encourages critical thinking and problem-solving skills as they interpret characters and scenes.
Emotional and Psychological Growth
The performing arts provide a safe space for children to express their emotions and explore different aspects of their personality. It can be particularly beneficial for children who may struggle with confidence or social anxiety. Through acting, singing, and dancing, they learn to manage their emotions and gain a sense of accomplishment.
Encouraging Discipline and Time Management
Participation in a structured workshop like Disney Week teaches children the importance of discipline and time management. They learn to balance fun with responsibility, understanding the importance of rehearsing and practising to achieve their goals. These skills are transferable to other areas of their lives, including their academic studies.
This is the 6th year our daughter has been going to Spotlights and she has genuinely loved every minute! She started in little stars where, with Monnie's nurturing and expertise, her confidence grew! The termly productions were amazing, and every child got a chance to shine on the stage!
I can't speak highly enough of the teaching team. Their Matilda production was simply amazing! Yet again every child was given an opportunity to shine! The show was extremely professional, and the kidsโ faces said it all. They all loved it!

My daughter has been attending Spotlights for the past few years and absolutely loves it. She has enjoyed making new friends and the teachers are lovely. She joined for the drama but has found a singing voice she never knew she had and is loving the dancing.

We offer a free trial class so your child can experience it without any commitment. This allows them to see if they enjoy the activities and feel comfortable before you decide to enroll. Our aim is to make every child feel welcome and excited to return!
Not at all! While we do prepare students who are passionate about pursuing a career in performing arts, many of our students join simply to have fun, make friends, and gain confidence. The skills they learn benefit them in all areas of life.
No prior experience is required! Our classes cater to all levels, from beginners to advanced performers. Whether your child is new to performing arts or has already been in productions, we tailor our teaching to suit their individual skill level and growth.
Yes, we do! For children who are passionate about pursuing a career in performing arts, Spotlights has a dedicated talent agency that regularly secures professional work for our students in film, TV, and theatre. Our instructors provide additional guidance to help children prepare for auditions and build their careers in the industry.
We aim to keep our fees as competitive and inclusive as possible. Unlike some schools, we provide all costumes for performances at no extra cost. We also offer monthly payment plans to help spread the cost of classes, making it easier for families to manage. Our goal is to ensure every child has the opportunity to shine without financial barriers.
