The sons of the Kuwaiti Ambassador to Cyprus attend AISC. I teach one of them in my World History class. All of his teachers, as well as some other AISC staff, were invited to a big party celebrating independence. The food was outstanding (roast lamb, spiced rice, hummus, falafel- mmmmm), and there were even goodie bags handed out upon departure.

Of course there were some mullahs at the event, as
well as some Greek Orthodox priests |

| Happy Independence Day Kuwait! |
