About Us
CreativeStarz Academy
Creative Starz is a performing arts school that provides children the opportunity to explore their artistic talents in a safe and supportive environment.
We aim to nurture and encourage children to express themselves creatively, boosting their self-confidence and self-esteem.
We are not a school of excellence as we believe that children of all abilities can benefit from the wonderful world of performing arts.
At Creative Starz, we promise to develop your child's creativity and imagination, their independent thinking through singing, dancing and acting. During the classes, children will develop communication skills by building relationships with friends and expressing their own thoughts.
Every child is special with their own unique potential. During the most crucial stage of our students' early development, CreativeStarz strives to provide a foundation for success in their future life.
