St Martins Workshops
OUTREACH
Our outreach workshop program is a core part of our organisation. We provide access to the arts to areas that would otherwise go without. Our outreach workshops are free and provide young people an important outlet to learn about themselves and the world.
Through fun active drama exercises, participants will:
- Develop an understanding of social and environmental barriers they may face
- Build a sense of ensemble through physical exercises and play
- Explore what is within our power to change
- Tell stories, investigating personal connection to universal themes
- Encourage good relationships with peers
- Develop empathy, cognitive leadership skills and build self confidence
Transitioning to secondary school is one of the critical junctions of a student’s schooling. Social challenges and overwhelm affect self-esteem, identity and relationships to peer groups. This program is specifically designed to build creative skills which apply to drama yet also equip this age group to navigate school life.

Currently, we have outreach workshops at:
- St Albans North Primary School
- Dandenong Primary School
- Stonnington's The Hub
We are aiming to grow our workshop program, especially regionally. If you’re interested, please get in touch.

We acknowledge the barriers to the arts that exist for many young people because of disability, cultural difference or social disadvantage and we offer scholarships and programs to overcome these barriers.
