Students participated in various sports activities with rare skills that left their parents/Guardians and entire school management yearning for more.
The most spectacular and outstanding bit was the parade where pupils, clad in their different respective class uniforms, entertained parents in different folks and songs, each class show casing clearly different diverse cultures and traditions, but carefully blended and finally brought together under one roof-Kampala Parents School. The pupils matched in line with music band playing in the background.
Beginning from as low as baby Class also known as ‘baby Ndunya’ nowedays, the pupils matched around the grounds, to the excitement of parents.
“The matching is really unique and shows that the school appreciates the blend of academics and co-curricular activities,” said one of the parents present at the show.
