On 17 August 1891, the Germans were defeated in Lugalo. It took them three years to reorganize.[1] They were attacked by Chief Mkwawa’s 3,000-strong army at Lugalo, who, despite being equipped with only spears and a few guns, quickly overpowered the German forces and killed Zelewski Chief Mkwawa (he committed suicide after realizing that he was surrounded by German soldiers), the winner of the 1891 battle, which was also the first invasion of Germans against the Hehe tribe, fought from Lugulu hill, throwing heavy stones towards the Germans. This battle strategy was called ‘Tosa-maganga’, meaning ‘throw stones’. The success of that battle was so meaningful to the Hehe tribe pride that, as a result, they named the location ‘Tosamaganga’.

The school is located at the Roman Catholic church seminary of Tosamaganga along with Ipamba hospital which is also at the seminary making easy accessibility of the health services for students and the academic staff.
