Ras Al Khaimah’s WellSpring School first in UAE to offer Nasa-inspired Space Education Programme

Ras Al Khaimah: The Wellspring School, a LifePlus International School in Ras Al Khaimah, has launched a first-of-its-kind in the Middle East and Africa region space exploration venture that will see students learn about the universe, science, coding and much more.
