Who We Are

A private school in the heart of Iyumbu.

Hail Mary School (HMS) is a private school located in the Iyumbu Ward, Dodoma Municipality, offering full-time care and learning for children from 18 months to Grade Six.

Our pre-school program is offered in both English and French, with an introduction to French in our toddler program.

In the quiet NHC Iyumbu Estate neighborhood stand the permanent structures of Hail Mary School — modern classrooms, an art room, a library and technology room, teachers' offices and a canteen. A large parking lot and a fenced playground secure students during their daily sports activities.
