The beautiful morning of the 28th of March 2019, saw the Greenhill Primary School Buwaate outgoing prefectorial body 2018/2019 officially hand over power to the incoming prefectorial body 2019/2020.
The event themed “The Leader in Me” was graced by the Head of School of Greenhill Academy Secondary School, Mr. Francis Twesigawe as the Guest of Honor and, was colorful with breathtaking performances, great speeches from the outgoing Head girl and incoming Head girl and a team of smartly clad incoming prefects confidently taking the oath and pledging to serve diligently.
As the outgoing prefects were handing over power, it was only right to appreciate their work done and allow them to give their final remarks to the school before leaving office. Represented by the outgoing Head girl, Agaba Linda Karen the cabinet thanked the entire school for their immense support that has enabled them to have a smooth term in office. She also thanked the parents for the moral support and encouragement they have given the leaders. She went on to congratulate the incoming prefects and encouraged them to work hard; be vigilant; uphold the school core values. Finally in her speech, she pledged to guide and support the new prefects.
This nostalgic speech was then followed by another energetic speech from the incoming Head girl Kaseewa Emmanuella who thanked the school for having voted her into power and expressed her commitment towards executing the duties of the office to the best of her ability. She also thanked the outgoing body for their work and encouraged the incoming body to work hard.
Before inviting the Guest of Honor, the Rector advised the leaders that two attributes; integrity and hard work make a good leader; urging them to groom these attributes. In his speech, Mr. Francis Twesigawe urged the leaders to have good listening skills and teamwork; stand for excellence and hardwork and, ensure to leave behind a good legacy.
We would like to thank the outgoing cabinet headed by Nsereko Joseph and Agaba Linda Karen for the work well done. To the incoming cabinet headed by Bwire Ambrose and Kaseewa Emmanuella, we congratulate you upon this great achievement and believe in you to make us proud.
Here is a full list of all the incoming leaders

One of our core values at Greenhill Academy is Social and Environmental Responsibility.

On the 23rd March 2019, the SWAS and Laity Clubs of our Secondary Section visited the Katalemwa Cheshire Home where they interacted with the children at the home and also took part in cleaning.
We thank all those who took part in this Activity. May God continue to bless you.

Saturday 2nd March, 2019 was truly a day to remember. It began with a downpour that left everyone wondering how the day’s activities would take place. However, the sun came to our rescue when it shone through and alas…, all was right and ripe with the world again.
Shortly after, the event officially commenced at 4:00pm with a red carpet event that took everyone’s breath away with screams from the onlookers reverberating through the walls of the secondary building as the students of the senior six class strode past them to the main hall.
Once inside, the silver-lilac décor complimented the elegance of those in attendance. After a colourful photo session, the Masters-of-ceremony lit up the room with compliments and humour.
The speeches came forth from the class teachers, administration, and the beautiful Guest of honour, the Public Relations Officer of the Greenhill Academy Schools, Ms. Irene Esther Mutuzo who encouraged the students to foster and maintain beneficial friendships among them.
There was fine dining complimented by the soothing music. The aroma of the food split through the air. We were all full of smiles.
The climax of the event was the crowning of the Prom King and Queen, Ngabo Aaron and Kagoma Martha.
We were all together in unity…, ‘El Mayara’ for we are stronger together!

Strength and Beauty in Diversity
By degrees, the event that had seemed to be a pie in the sky in Senior One had finally come to pass and by the looks of it; it was worth the wait! The Junior Prom was one of the most exquisite functions of the year. It exposed the glamour and hidden fashion that was yet to be discovered in the students.
The crowd roared to life with vibrant applause in astonishment once the students started to make their way down the red carpet.
The ladies showcased their elegance and beauty in their dazzling outfits, while the gentlemen exhibited styles that seemed were made in heaven.
As the students settled in the main hall, they received the shock of their lives at the sight of their former class teacher also known as, ‘the Village Chief’, Mr. Kizito Justus who would later be introduced as the Guest of Honour of the event. At 06:00pm, nothing was more magnetic than the nose-tickling aroma of the dinner.
When the time came, it was not a hard choice to make. For it was the perfect Prom Queen, Ericah Ashanut and the Prom King, Mbowa Andrew. While on their respective thrones, they looked unbeatably royal!
By and large, one could say that this was a hallmark to be left by the S.4 Class 2019. It will forever be an inerasable memory to hold us together. Everything was in an apple pie order. There was no crack to be fixed but just more applause to be won.

GREENHILL ACADEMY WINS THE 3RD SEASON OF THE NBS NATIONAL SCHOOL DEBATE.
The third season of the NBS National School Debate Championship run by the Uganda Debate Society finally ended on Saturday 16th February, 2019. Greenhill Academy in its packaging for a holistic education was part of this exciting learning experience which began in the year 2018 till 16th February 2019.
Numerous schools participated in this intellectual battle and among which were Nabisunsa Girls’ School and Taibah International School. Consequently, Greenhill Academy students had to traverse the country in such for victories and indeed, victories were registered. However, it was not all plain sailing. The lost battles all helped in laying the firm foundation that saw the school team rise to the occasion when the opportune time came.
Undeniably, winners do not quit. The passion driven team strode on with God on their side, even at their lowest point and it paid off on the D-day at Baptist High School. The host school was the defending champion for the previous season. However, the witty Greenhill Academy team tore into victory after flooring Baptist High School in the Grand Finale.
The orators who flew our flag high throughout the season were:
- Kakembo Monica
- Mayeku Richard
- Masaba Brionny
The sweet victory came with prizes. During the award ceremony, the jury found it wise to declare the meticulous Kakembo Monica as the overall best speaker for the season. The team was awarded medals, certificates and a trophy for their excellent performance.
As season 3 drew to a close, the new season was launched henceforth. Greenhill Academy is all geared up and ready for another exciting opportunity to exhibit its intellectual superiority in the oratory world! Congratulations to our orators; you have made Greenhill Academy proud.
DENIS OLUBA,
PATRON, DEBATE CLUB.
