Christian missionaries belonging to the Church Missionary Society of England founded Gayaza High School on the land that was donated to the Church by Kabaka Daudi Cwa II (King of Buganda) in January 1905 with 4 pioneer students and hence becoming Uganda’s first girls’ boarding school.

The purpose of the school’s establishment was to train girls, especially the daughters of chiefs of the Kingdom of Buganda, in those skills that would make them better wives but his was only a basis of security approval from the traditional leaders of that time. The founders however had a different motive: to educate girls based on a strong Christian foundation. They realized that the best way of entrenching Christianity was by having Christian mothers under whom children spent all their formative years.

In the beginning, the school’s curriculum included agriculture, handiwork, child-care and needlework, as well as scripture, reading, writing, arithmetic and geography.
