Mt.St.Henry’s High School Mukono

“We can’t become what we want by remaining what we are.”

ADMISSION

There are no fixed criteria for admission to our school; each child is treated individually. We do our best to place the newcomers into classes we believe they will thrive the most in.

In general, we look at how old a child is, where and how many years of schooling they have had, as well as their levels in English and Maths. A chart with the standard age of children in each year group can be found in our handbook.

A place will only be offered if we believe we are right for the child and the child will be right for our school community. Offers are only made by the Director, in writing.

FIELD TRIPS

As part of Mt. St. Henry’s High School Mukono, field trips will be planned occasionally. Prior to each trip, information will be sent home detailing the date, time, cost, location, chaperones, etc. The permission slip must be signed and returned to the teacher in order for the child to attend. We welcome parents to join us for trips.If you do not wish for your child to participate in the field trip, notify his/her teacher so that other arrangements can be made for the day.

Clubs

With more than ten clubs at our school we give our students a chance to belong to some of the best mentorship program in the school.

Outreach

In keeping with the school’s policy, a portion of funds raised from all events is donated to worthy causes.

As a catholic based school, we encourage our pupils to share with others who are in need. Our pupils benefit from this exposure which gives them insight to a world where people are in need.

Parents are assured that we take all the necessary security precautions and act responsibly. We work with non-governmental organisations where our pupils are in good hands.

Community service is structured in our system where each pupil is expected to take part in 15 hours of community service per annum. Pupils are rewarded in recognition of their community service:

Youth drug usage in Uganda is a developing problem that needs immediate response. Drug abuse and addiction have serious repercussions for both individuals and society at large. Schools have a crucial role in tackling this issue and can considerably help in the fight against drug usage as narcotics continue to permeate communities.

Ugandan schools must implement a holistic strategy that emphasizes prevention, education, and support if they are to successfully tackle drug misuse. Here are some tactics that schools might employ to combat drug misuse among young people in Uganda.

Education and Awareness Programs: Comprehensive drug education programs that accurately convey the risks of drug abuse should be given top priority in schools. Age-appropriate material that emphasizes both the immediate and long-term effects of drug use should be included in these programs. To include students and encourage conversations on the subject, you can arrange for guest speakers, workshops, and interactive sessions.

Early Intervention and Screening: To identify students who may use drugs, schools can implement early intervention programs. The detection of warning indicators, such as adjustments in behavior, academic performance, or social interactions, might be aided by routine screens and assessments. Students who exhibit indicators of drug abuse or vulnerability should get counseling and support from teachers and trained counselors.
