Performing Arts

At SBIS, we believe Performing Arts is a creative vehicle for children to develop a deep-rooted passion towards the many art forms available in the vicinity of our faculty. It ranges from vocal and instrumental training, dance and theatre.

The corporeal existence or the body is used as an instrument of expression to showcase experiences or stories that foretell of the past, present and future.

With a team of skilled and artistic teachers onboard; we assure you that your child’s learning and development in the said field will enrich their educational experience and equip them with essential skills for success in life.
