Sunday, 31 January 2016
Diplomacy -
An IAA Secondary student delegation - and particularly our Grade 8s - joined the National Orthodox School for NOSMUN 2016, a Model United Nations event tackling the critical issues of the day. The Syrian civil war and the consequent refugee crisis in the Middle East and Europe were among the many topics explored and debated in a sophisticated simulation of the real-world UN. Thank you to the National Orthodox School for hosting our future diplomats!

Service -

From Jerash in December to Ajloun in January, the IAA Community Action Service (CAS) programme has been reaching out to those in need. Community and service is an integral part of the IAA Experience. Yesterday, IAA students visited the Ein Bustan Orphanage in support of the children there, delivering warm winter coats for all. A life lived in the service of others is indeed a life well-lived. Thank you, Ein Bustan, for opening your doors to the IAA!
