Kwinana School Holiday Workshops July 2026
Make a splash these July school holidays at Barking Gecko Arts' workshop, inspired by our upcoming production "Walk of the Whales".
Young creatives will dive deep into the mysteries of the ocean, learning drama skills and theatre-making techniques while exploring friendship, imagination, and the magic of storytelling. In a safe and supportive environment, participants will build connections, grow their confidence, and discover how small changes can make a big difference.
Based on Nick Bland's award-winning picture book and adapted by Gita Bezard, "Walk of the Whales" is a heartwarming story about cross-species friendship, standing up for what's right, and protecting the places we call home.
