Saturday, 11 March 2017
Great job IAA Dead2Red teams!
Our teams showed incredible perseverance and resilience as they ran the 242km Dead Sea to Red Sea race to support Al Hussein Society, an NGO helping the physically-challenged.
IAA Happy Feet Plus came in 3rd in 14h 31min, IAA Happy Feet made it in 16h 49min and Student Hawks made it in 18h 29min. This achievement would not have been possible without the great effort of the students, coaches and parents who supported this event.
Thank you team and support staff. You made us proud.
