About Us

Nurturing the whole child
  • Our motto isFear God, Be Wise.

    (Based on Proverbs 1:7 – “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom …”).

    By this motto, we are encouraging our learners to fear God, who will in turn grant them their heart’s desires and above all, wisdom, which they need in every life’s endeavors.

    We believe that there has to be a relationship between the Creator of mankind, the nation, the vision bearer and the benefactors of Education. In bridging all these, our guiding principles are:

    a) God’s Word on educating children (Deut 4:9 – 10, Proverbs 22:6)
    b) The National Education Policy (the 1995 constitution amended in 2006)
    c) Our School Vision

    • High Quality Education

      Small class sizes and highly qualified teachers

      We believe in our kids getting a personalized educational experience – because each of them is unique. We want to develop their strengths and help each one to get better in the areas that they need more support. To accomplish this goal, our class sizes are kept small, and we hire highly qualified teachers with diverse skills. Our teachers are also trained in working with special needs children.

    • Right Environment

      Learning only happens when it is fun

      Lala’s is all about impacting kids’ lives positively by giving them the right knowledge and the right values. Our approach to education is to always keep it fun. From our tree-house to our library, from our science lab to our playground, we constantly encourage their curiosity.

      We work hand in hand with a number of organizations in seeing to the spiritual, physical, emotional, social and mental development of our learners. These include Watoto Church, Doctors’ Hospital, Mildmay Uganda, the Children’s Medical Centre among others.

  • Our HistoryNurturing your children since 2007

  • With the realization that there was severe need for day care services in and around Kampala in 2001, Ms. Murungi Christine started “nurturing” the idea of providing this much needed service to parents. In 2005, a job opportunity presented itself at Ambrossoli International School, where she worked for about a year and acquired some skills and experience on how to operate this kind of business.

    Christine partnered with friends to raise sufficient resources and embarked on seeing her dream come true.

  • In February 2007, Lala’s Daycare Center opened its doors to the public with just one child, Jesse Ayebare. By the end of 2007, there were 6 babies. Kindergarten was introduced in 2008 this grew Lala’s student count to 28, 3 teachers and 2 nannies.

    Today, Lala’s has developed into a fully-fledged Kindergarten School, licensed and registered by the Ministry of Education & Sports. And at the beginning of 2018, we introduced a section for children with special needs, where we now have 3 children with cerebral palsy and 8 children on the Autism Spectrum.
