The partnership was officially announced on May 7, 2025, during a visit by Israeli Ambassador to Rwanda, Einat Weiss. During her visit, the students showcased their talents, and the ambassador took time to engage with them directly.

Elie Muhizi, the school’s founder, described the partnership as a significant milestone and expressed pride in collaborating with Israel—renowned for its global leadership in technology and innovation.

He emphasized the long-term value the partnership could bring to both the students and the broader national education landscape.

“Israel is a powerful and advanced country. Partnering with them is an honor. It will benefit our students and our nation in many ways, and we expect the collaboration to keep expanding,” Muhizi stated.

He noted that the initiative will strengthen the school’s use of technology in learning and hinted at broader opportunities ahead, including the possibility of students pursuing further studies in Israel.

“Another aspect of our partnership involves teaching Hebrew—the official language of Israel—to students at Winners Mount Academy,” he added.

Winners Mount Academy currently serves around 300 students, with 170 girls and 130 boys enrolled.

The school is preparing to present its first cohort of 18 candidates for Rwanda’s national primary leaving national exams.

Muhizi expressed high expectations for the students, aiming for top marks that will enable them to gain admission to the country’s best secondary schools.
