The major objectives covered in Drama are:

- acquire a knowledge of self and others through participation in, and reflection on dramatic experience.

- to develop competency in communication skills and exploration of various dramatic disciplines.

- to develop an appreciation for drama and theatre as a process and an art form.

Drama is used throughout the programs offered at Laurier Heights - choral speech, reader's theatre, puppetry, role-plays and much more. Drama is used to help meet the learning needs of all students from kindergarten to Grade 9.

Visiting drama groups such as Concrete Theatre or perfomers from Parks in the Classroom have enriched health themes and science programs and often include student participation.
