Our students receive a high level of care and personal attention to support them in their learning. Our focus on academic achievement is matched by our desire to nurture adaptable, resilient and compassionate global citizens within a Ugandan context.
Great emphasis is put on pupil and teacher trust and well-being. We will work together as passionate and knowledgeable professionals to inspire our students to develop a love for exploring and discovery. Outdoor practical learning opportunities and healthy related physical activity is a regular feature of the school day, helping to develop a healthy body and mind.
Our students will learn to understand more deeply our own Ugandan culture as well as the culture of others, becoming socially and academically confident, and growing in respect for themselves and all others.

Healthy Meals
Healthy Meals
We believe healthy eating is an important part of being at school. We value our meal time and try to make eating a pleasurable experience and encourage children to make healthy choices.
We believe that parents should be able to order school meals with confidence and that children should be able to enjoy tasty and appealing food that’s good for them. We have worked with nutritionists to plan a healthy, balanced meal of local food. Every meal includes carbohydrates, vegetables, protein and fruit.
We have regular reviews of our school menu by the student council and staff.
Hydration is especially important for children as they have higher water requirements than adults. we encourage regular drinking throughout the day and every class has safe drinking water.
