TOP TEN TIPS FOR ENROLMENTS
Everyone here at Hunter Drama wishes you a fabulous 2025. Hopefully you’ve recharged your batteries over the festive season and are ready to make this year your best yet!
There is only one month until our drama and musical theatre workshops kick off on Feb 3 so it’s time to turn your thoughts to the afterschool activities of the children in your world. Enrolments in our Newcastle workshops are filling particularly fast so if that’s your preferred location, don’t put it off any longer.
If your preferred day and time is not available, contact our office and we can add you to the waiting list for that particular class. As the year kicks into gear, there’s often a lot of movement across the timetable so it’s worth doing.
For those located in the Hunter Valley we run courses in Cessnock, Maitland and Singleton and we are keen to grow our enrolments in the region so that we can provide more theatre opportunities for students living in this area.
Top 10 Tips for Enrolments:
1. Even if you can’t get the exact day and time you prefer, select an alternative, book in and contact the office to waitlist for your preferred class.
2. If you live closer to Lake Macquarie, choose a class at Valentine instead of trekking into Newcastle.
3. If you can’t get your child into a class with their school mates, encourage them to make new friends in the class they’ve been enrolled in. It expands their social circle, challenges their beliefs and is a great life lesson! Before you know it, they’ll be loving their class and will forget all about their first preference!
4. Friday and Saturday workshops are now available in Newcastle for Junior Drama and Broadway Kids and spaces are still available.
5. Not everyone wants to be in the spotlight. In 2025 we’re running a course called HD Crew for students 15+ that will teach them all the essentials of working backstage, from production, tech, to marketing and theatre administration. This class is also an excellent addition for students who desire a more complete understanding of theatre to enhance their drama or musical theatre experience.
6. If you’re not sure if Hunter Drama is the right choice for your child, enroll anyway, attend the first two workshops and if they don’t like it you will get a full refund. You have nothing to lose.
7. Creative Kids vouchers are applicable.
8. We can also offer payment plans if paying the full term in advance is too difficult. Simply contact the office to discuss.
9. There are a limited number of full year scholarships available with applications due by Friday 10 January. Apply here: https://form.jotform.com/
10. You have nothing to lose and your child has everything to gain. Make 2025 the year you spark their creativity and confidence, grow their social circle and feed their passion.
Our mission is to change the future by inspiring young people to be the best possible versions of themselves.
