Niwot Elementary and Mwebaza Infant Primary School formed a partnership in 2007. Since then, the two schools have enjoyed learning about each other through cross-cultural exchange activities, art projects, and live video school events. The Niwot community participates in activities and learning opportunities that foster a global understanding and a deepened worldview while building friendships abroad.

Niwot-Mwebaza Club

Our focus is on the cross-cultural exchange between the two schools, learning about current global issues and how they affect us in Colorado and our friends in Uganda, fundraising events, and cultural activities.
