Celebrating Our Legacy of Excellence

From judges to entrepreneurs, diplomats to educators, Gayaza women continue to shape every sphere of society. Here are just a few of our inspiring alumnae

Projects & Impact

Our commitment to service lives on through initiatives that uplift our school and the broader community.

Modern Administration Block

GOGA delivered a state-of-the-art administration block, designed to match the scale and ambition of Gayaza High School. With over 120 teacher workstations, private offices, a lounge, and nursing room, this space embodies the excellence we stand for.

The Gayaza Swimming Pool

Every Gayaza Girl deserves access to world-class facilities. GOGA funded and built a full-size swimming pool to elevate sports, confidence, and safety. It’s more than a pool—it’s a symbol of opportunity.

The community clock

As a beacon of unity between Gayaza Junior and High School, the community clock tower is our next iconic project. Timeless in meaning, this monument will remind future generations that time spent at Gayaza is time well invested.

Gayaza Girl

These are the voices of old girls and friends of Gayaza, sharing how the spirit of a Gayaza Girl lives on through poise, discipline, resilience, and purpose.

"There’s something about a Gayaza Girl that assures us all that we are dealing with the best. They are confident and have proven their greatness repeatedly. How the school continues to inspire past and future generations to reach their potential, we may never know! What we know is that we must keep it going for the sake of our daughters and theirs to follow!"

Paul Ekudu Managing Director, Arrow Capital, Uganda

"Not only am I married to a Gayaza Girl, I was raised with them. Gayaza Girls are impeccable, resilient and resourceful all the time. Whether it be work or stressors from motherhood, Gayaza Girls never buckle under pressure and have an amazing ability to bounce back after setbacks! Gayaza Girls NEVER GIVE UP!"

Moses Wavamunno Consultant Nephrologist, Australia

Gayaza is the source of some of the fondest memories I have of high School. I was at GHS briefly and yet when it was time to return to my high school abroad, I was in tears. During those short months, I made deep friendships that would last a life time. The experience of boarding with amazing young women in an environment that fostered talent, discipline and self confidence was a turning point for me. I am proud to support this fundraiser and I hope you will too.

Gayaza Girls taught me how to be a Gentleman around them and women generally. You cannot afford to be clumsy in your approach to or in your conversation with a Gayaza Girl. If you try, she will teach you the hard and firm way! They are Assertive and headstrong without being Arrogant, They are very Affable.

Tom N.Mbalinda Advocate

Poise, Grace, Intelligence and Elegance. Four qualities that my sisters and all my friends that went to Gayaza share. I believe that this is the true legacy of GHS and we are all blessed because of it.

Paul Magarura Uganda

As an International Volleyball Referee, the Uganda Volleyball Federation President, and mother of two great Ugandan swimming personalities, I know I owe Gayaza High School and Miss Cutler for igniting my career and sports passion. They were the genesis and stepping stones of the Sports personality that I am today. Giving back to the school would be the greatest honour for any Old Girl and our Acquaintances. Let’s us support it generously. #Tugiggale

I remember the early morning Scottish Dancing at 6am. I remember working so hard to consistently make to ‘Familie’; I remember the grief that came with not qualifying to join the chapel choir! I remember the heartbreaks after social that taught us to support each other emotionally. As the class Captain 1D, House Leader of Cox House and Head Girl, Gayaza moulded me. And now, I see Gayaza in the authentic tribe of friends, loyal to death. Gayaza will forever be a part of me. Let’s give back to our school. #Tugiggale
