Londonderry Primary School, Newtownards
 

Welcome

At Londonderry Primary School we believe in educating every child, encouraging their unique potential and caring for their wellbeing - preparing them for a bright and successful future.  We have a proud and rich tradition of academic excellence, strong pastoral support and an extensive range of extracurricular provision and after school clubs. Our school ethos is “Educating, Encouraging, Caring” and we pride ourselves on the supportive, family atmosphere we have created.

We provide a safe, caring environment and endeavour to instill a love of learning whilst striving to create lifelong learners. Every child will be able to look back on how they have participated in the life of the school and how they made a valuable and valued positive contribution.

For us, positive relationships and excellent communication are of paramount importance as we work closely together with parents and our community towards shared goals. We therefore hope you enjoy looking around our website and if you need any more information please do not hesitate to get in touch.  Together we will shape the future with learning, kindness and care.

It is that time of year once again. Our P7 pupils have been busy taking part in the Young Enterprise Business Beginnings programme; and what a fantastic experience it has been! From conducting job interviews and hiring their teams, to developing creative product ideas, our pupils have fully embraced the challenge. The confidence, teamwork and entrepreneurial skills on display have been superb. This is always a brilliant initiative for our P7s, helping them build real-life skills in such an engaging way. We are excited to share what they have been working on; here’s a look at the products they’ll be selling from Monday! πŸ‘πŸ»
