Gavin is back at school, so it looks like we won’t be getting around to the rest of the extra-curricular classes we were planning to try out during his school holidays. Since he finishes school later now and he will be having ECAs at school, I figured he would need some “down time” and time spent with the family.
Since I’ve already found the contacts, I thought I would write about the other places we were planning to try so if you are interested in those classes, you can contact them directly.
For Speech and Drama, I am aware of two places that offer it:
Lorna Whiston
Lorna Whiston is a study center to help young students improve their English. They also run Speech and Drama classes alongside their English programs. They are currently located at Taman Tun Dr Ismail:

Lorna Whiston also offers English as a Second Language, Advance Language and Public Speaking courses. They accept children from age 4 onwards.
BluBricks

BluBricks offers classes for children as young as 3 years old and their program continues all the way up to a Diploma in Speech and Drama so if your child wants to take it more seriously, this may be the school to go for.
