We are happy to announce that the Virtual ASA program will start on Monday September 14th. Even in these challenging times in the pandemic, we believe there is more to school life than studying only. We are committed to continue the tradition of ASA and continue to offer a vast range of activities to our students. We hope that the offered activities will complement your learning day.

The traditional ASA Fair can't be held due to the new Covid - 19 related circumstances and distance protocols. Please watch the ASA & Language Institute video presentation for a chance to hear from the instructors and their assistants more specifically about their activity.

Philosophy of work

From our perspective, a well-rounded education cannot simply be accomplished in the classroom. The learning does not end when classes are over.

NOVA International schools offer a varied program of After School Activities (ASA) throughout the school year. It covers a variety of sports, games and activities. Its purpose is to improve young people’s motivation, increase self-esteem and confidence, develop new skills and ultimately help them become better learners. These are non-competitive activities offered to all NOVA students, intended to meet their interests and needs.

Incorporating activity into one’s lifestyles has a wide array of benefits encompassing the physical, social and mental well being of the student. Getting students involved in sports can be a good way of keeping children busy and active.

After School Activities are supervised by teachers, teacher assistants and volunteer parents, and are great opportunities to meet new friends, learn new skills and explore and develop new talents.

We believe that our students who are involved in NOVA’s ASA program will benefit in a number of ways.
