ST
LAWRENCE SCHOOL MIGYERA HOSTS THE KABAKA
It was a ground-breaking ceremony on 2nd
May 2015 when St Lawrence Primary School in Migyera hosted The Kabaka of
Buganda, Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II (King of Buganda Kingdom) and the Katikiro of
Buganda Charles Peter Mayiga (Prime Minister of Buganda). Buganda is the
largest of the traditional kingdoms in present-day Uganda, comprising all of
Uganda's Central Region including the Ugandan capital Kampala.
The King was launching the “Amasaza Cup”. This is a
football competition between different counties that make up Buganda Kingdom.
The match was between Buruuli County and Buleemezi County. Buruuli County, where Migyera belongs,
emerged as the winner.

The King planted a memorial mango tree at the St.
Lawrence Primary School. This served as
a sign to the community of Migyera to practice reforestation to
stabilize climate since Migyera is a semi-arid area.
The
Kabaka waters the tree he planted at the St. Lawrence Primary School.
It was such a happy day and the St. Lawrence children displayed
their singing talent in front of a big crowd and above all, in the presence of
the King. The school was credited for the good academic performance and
developing children’s singing talent.

Live the King of Buganda
