Specialist movement education is provided through Eurythmy and Bothmer Gymnastics. Both are unique components of Steiner Waldorf education methods found in schools and communities across the world. Each student will make progress in control, balance, uprightness, sense of rhythm and co-ordination in their movement, and this will in turn lead to greater confidence and self-esteem and an improved ability to work effectively in other activities such as the crafts. The group dynamic of these sessions cultivates social awareness, responsibility and listening skills.
Speech and Drama features extensively at The Mount. It is both integrated in college and brought to life through the community plays and festivals throughout the year. In speech and drama, movement and gesture encompass an awareness of space as practiced in Eurythmy and Bothmer Gymnastics: these support the movement and flow of speech and gesture.
Students all experience weekly sessions in art and/or painting.
