🏆 Annual Highlight

ABAA Sports Day — Where Champions Are Born

Our annual Sports Day is the most anticipated event on the ABAA calendar. As seen on our @abaa10 TikTok and Facebook page — hundreds of cheering parents, colourful house teams, and hundreds of learners competing with heart, sweat, and huge smiles.

Four house teams — named after Ugandan values — compete across a full day of events. Every learner from Baby Class to Primary 7 participates. The day ends with an awards ceremony and a vibrant celebration feast.

Music, Ballet Dancing & Choir

Music is at the heart of ABAA. From the moment learners arrive each morning, song fills our classrooms and corridors. Our performing arts programme covers school choir, traditional Ugandan dance, ballet, and modern dance — each taught by experienced instructors.

As seen on our @abaapreparatory Instagram and @abaa10 TikTok, our learners light up the stage at every event — from graduation ceremonies to termly concerts. Ballet classes (for girls and boys) are among our most popular offerings, developing grace, posture, coordination, and confidence.

Swimming — Safety First, Excellence Always

ABAA's on-campus swimming pool hosts one of the most comprehensive school swimming programmes in Wakiso District. Every learner receives structured instruction from a qualified swimming coach, starting with water safety and building progressively through stroke technique.

Swimming is scheduled into the school timetable — not just an after-school add-on. From Baby Class splash sessions to competitive gala preparation for P5–P7 learners, the pool is in constant use.

School Garden & Environmental Education

ABAA's school garden is more than a patch of earth — it's a living classroom. Directly listed on our school website, gardening at ABAA teaches children science, ecology, nutrition, and the deep satisfaction of growing something with their own hands.

The school garden grows vegetables (tomatoes, kale, cabbages, beans), fruit trees, medicinal herbs, and flowers. Learners rotate through the garden weekly, keeping a garden diary that integrates with science and environmental studies lessons.

🥦
Vegetable Growing

Learners plant, tend, harvest, and even cook what they grow in cookery class.

♻️
