ASA Term 4 Booking and Start Dates
We are delighted to let you know that our ASA will resume in Week 1 of Term 4, starting Monday, October 6.
This earlier start comes in response to the valuable feedback many of you shared in our recent survey. We’re pleased to be able to accommodate your request.
Bookings for Term 4 will open on Monday, September 15 at 7 pm. As places are limited, we encourage you to book early to secure your child’s spot.
From now on, ASA will begin in the first week of every term (except Term 1 at the start of the school year). Bookings will therefore always take place in the last week of the previous term.
New in T4: Spanish lessons!
- Beginners – every Tuesday with our new Spanish teacher, Karen
- Intermediate/Advanced – every Wednesday with Ana
Alongside this, we have prepared a rich and exciting program designed to entertain, challenge, and inspire students after class.
Finally, we are always keen to hear from passionate individuals who might like to lead an activity (science, homework support, arts…). If you know someone who would enjoy contributing, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
