後記：這篇是收藏在草稿的2個月前的文章了，情況已經有變，我們的歐遊計劃暫且擱置，而小Bie亦突然改變主意，想要去Paunahou 上暑期班，願意嚐試新事物、適應新環境是好事，爸媽絕對讚同。
而且，好讓爸媽多了解一下這所第一名校，實在對明年小天入學有一點點幫助。希望到時有機會讓小天選校吧！

美國這裡開始要報暑期班了，其實上一年老師都推薦小Bie take Musical Theater，媽媽也覺得她很合適，只是小Bie上年堅拒說自己怕講台詞，非常不願參加。事實上，很多高敏的成年人形容自己平日社交比較保守，而一上到演台上就成為了另一個人。
今年小Bie突然要求想參加Musical Theater，加上學校剛好開辦一班非常有趣、老師又有來頭的drama class：
New York Broadway Drama Gr 2-4
This fast-paced, activity-packed course is designed to introduce boys and girls to the fundamentals of musical theatre, including singing, dancing and acting. Taught by Katherine Jones, the students will participate in fun theatre games, and daily dance and vocal exercises. They will learn character development, stage presence, vocal projection, musicality, coordination, and teamwork. Students will be a part of the musical process, not just in their preparations for the final performance, but also by helping to design and paint sets, and create some costume and prop pieces. The summer course will culminate in an exciting full-length musical performance of The Aristocats Kids, where each student will have an opportunity to shine in a designated role. Join our pack of hounds and felines on a cat-napping adventure where "Ev'rybody Wants to Be a Cat!"
Jun 16 - Jul 18 12:30PM - 3:30PM $595.00 G827S1
