About Princess Diana High School

Princess Diana High School Munyonyo PRIDHISCO was established in 2007 in commemoration of 10 years after the fateful death of Diana, Princess of Wales in a car accident in Paris, France.

It was commissioned by the Ministry of Education and Sports of the Government of Uganda and officially opened on 4th February 2007. Its opening coincided with the visit of Queen Elizabeth II to Uganda who was the mother-in-law of Princess Diana.

Dress Down Day
Student Experience

Dress Down Day

Dress Down Day at Princess Diana High School Munyonyo is held thrice a year, where students identify a school challenge and voluntarily contribute to solve it by dressing in non-uniform after raising funds. This initiative was started to inculcate a spirit of self-determination among learners, teaching them not to wait for government aid but to take action in communities where they live. It reflects true compassion and the practice of random acts of kindness, as inspired by our Patron, Princess Diana of Wales.

Princess Kirabo Patricia
Joining the Mighty Princess Diana High School Munyonyo / PRIDHISCO truly changed my life. It was the first big step that took me beyond what I ever imagined for myself — even boarding my very first plane to South Africa! At Princess Diana High School Munyonyo / PRIDHISCO, my mind opened up to so many new ideas, and I am constantly challenged to think deeper and dream bigger. I always feel supported — I ask questions, explore what I love, and just be myself. Because of that, I have grown in confidence and purpose. And when I was named Miss Integrity South Africa at the African Leadership Institute it was a dream come true — all because of that one informed choice I made to join this incredible school. I'm forever grateful.

She became a United States Department of State Young African Leader attached to Drexel University in Philadelphia USA, a European Commission Young Leader attached to Brussels Belgium, an African Union-European Union Young Leader in Addis Ababa Ethiopia and a Commonwealth Young Leader in London United Kingdom. She passed on in a fatal accident at the Arches National Park in Utah USA on June 13 2020. As a tribute, a central street that runs through school campus was named after her. She was only 25.

In loving memory - 1995-2020. Essie Road, named in her honour, runs through the heart of our campus.
