SISAC Championship cross country run
On Tuesday 21 February AIS hosted the SISAC Cross country championships at Phu My Hung golf course. It was a great event as it is a team competition. Out of the 8 runners that are entered, the first 5 for each school to cross the finishing line score points for their school.

Some of the points covered were: why study in the USA; scholarships and finances for studying in the USA; and guidance in preparation
