About
Our School
Safari Schools started its operations in 1968 with a Kindergarten off Lugogo bypass, in Sports Club premises owned by BAT Uganda, now, Lugogo Baptist Church.
The school was founded by Rosalie Ann Humphries a British teacher who later left Uganda in 1974 and passed the business on to Mrs Hilda Mpairwe, a professional teacher specialised in early childhood education.
Mrs. Mpairwe had her professional training in Australia at Camdenville College, and at Makerere University Institute of Education in the early 1970’s. She is currently Principal of Safari schools with a wealth of experience invaluable to the learning journey of your child and steering the business to a new generation of teaching and administration professionals.
In 1986, the school relocated to its own premises on Sports Lane in Lugogo, near the Rugby Club, where it remained until its temporary move to Plot 95 Bukoto Street, Kampala in 2022.
We are excited to announce that our doors are now open for enrollment at our new permanent home with the completion of our purpose-built, modern learning facility in Kira-Mulawa.
