Listen "9: ASA (not the Scottish footballer)"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we take a deep dive into our After School Activities (ASAs): the clubs, sports and creative programmes that make student life at Britannica International School Shanghai buzz after the final bell. Year 12’s Adam and Year 11’s Harisha join ASA Coordinator Mister Boardman to explain how ASAs support wellbeing, university applications, skills development and everyday fun — from drama and robotics to choirs and football. We also speak with Kevin McNeany, founder and chairman of Orbital Education, about his life and the role of international education. Stick around for a cheeky finale: the Britannica Halloween Ball song. (Yes, we’re a week late, but heck..)This is an episode perfect for parents, pupils and teachers looking for ASA ideas, enrolment tips and real student voices.
