Who we are

Our story, our vision, and the people who make Kasumba a school with a difference.

Our story

A proud legacy since 2006

Kasumba Nursery and Primary School opened its doors in 2006 and was blessed by His Lordship Bishop Antony Zziwa of Kiyinda- Mityana Diocese on 4 May 2006. From the very beginning, it was built on a simple belief – that every child deserves a warm, caring place to grow and learn.

Today we are a thriving community of curious, kind and hardworking children – families come to us from Mubende and from right across Uganda. We look back on our history with pride, and forward with real excitement about preparing children for the world of the 21st century.

Our journey of growth

From four children to a family of hundreds -built on the trust of parents.

Our vision

A School With A Difference

We aim to stand apart – a place where children are genuinely known, cared for, and inspired to reach higher than they thought they could.

Our mission

Developing the whole child

To develop every child academically, spiritually and socially, so they grow into confident, useful and responsible citizens of our country.

“The fundamental purpose of Kasumba is learning, not teaching. Here, you learn how to learn.”
