La Soukra (Arabic: سكرة) is a city and commune in the Ariana Governorate of Tunisia. As of 2004 it had a total population of 129,693.[1]
It is located in the center of a vast agricultural plain occupied by orange orchards of which only a few traces remain. Indeed, during the years 2000 and 2010, urban expansion changed the appearance of the city.
British International School of Tunis is in La Soukra.[2]
