Wolfe Pups — your questions
What age group is Wolfe Pups for?
Wolfe Pups is our introductory drama programme for children aged 5–6, typically in Junior and Senior Infants. No prior drama experience is required.
What should my child wear to their first Wolfe Pups class?
Comfortable clothing is perfect — we don't sit around reciting poetry in drama at Studio Wolfe. There's plenty of movement, games and group play in every class, and on some days it can feel like a real workout, so dress your child in something they can run, jump and roll around in.
How long is each Wolfe Pups class, and what happens in it?
Each class runs for 45 minutes, once a week during term. Every class blends imaginative play, storytelling, simple role play and group games to help young children build confidence, creativity and early performance skills.
Where are Wolfe Pups classes held?

Is Wolfe Pups suitable for a shy or first-time performer?

Our teachers are experienced at gently helping young children come out of their shell through play, stories and group activities, and the studio is a safe, welcoming space for every child to be themselves.

What's a Wolfe Pups class actually like?
Drama at Studio Wolfe is active and playful — we don't sit down and recite poetry, and we don't spend a whole term learning lines. Children learn through games, movement, storytelling and self-expression. When there are lines to learn for an upcoming show, we rehearse them together in class, and our teachers are always on hand to support every child both in the studio and during performances. As children progress, they can move on to Junior Drama at age 7.
