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.

🎄What a lovely way to end the year! 🎄 Our staff joined the children for a Christmas sing-song at our final assembly of 2025. Plenty of smiles and festive cheer. Merry Christmas from all the staff at LPS!
Merry Christmas from our Front of House team! The people who know everyone… and where they’re meant to be! The keepers of the keys, the phones, the visitors book and all the important information. Always smiling, always helpful!🎄🎅🏻
Well done to our Unison colouring competition winners! 🎨 Their fantastic colouring is helping to promote the Free School Meals for Everyone initiative, supporting the drive to ensure every child has access to a healthy meal at school.
