Friends' School Lisburn - Preparatory Department

We’d like to extend a warm invitation prospective pupils and their families to discover what makes a Friends’ Prep education so special. 🌟 Applications are now open for Pre-Prep and Prep 1 (September 2026) - with limited spaces also available in some other year groups! ❤️💛💚

Helen and Jean visited school yesterday to share an assembly on Samaritan’s Purse – Operation Christmas Child. Pupils enjoyed seeing just how much joy the shoeboxes bring to others around the world. 📢 More details about this year’s shoebox appeal will be sent home soon. ❤️💛💚

Huge congratulations to these talented pupils who were recently presented with certificates in assembly as they ALL passed their Speech & Drama exams with Distinction - five of which received FULL marks! 🎭✨ Thank you to Sherryn from CUE Academy for her help & encouragement! 🌟

As another school year comes to an end, we’d like to say a heartfelt goodbye & good luck to our amazing Prep 7 class. We’re so proud of you all - your new schools are very lucky to get such wonderful pupils! 🌟 ❤️💛💚

Prep 4 stepped back in time today to celebrate VE Day as part of their World War II topic this term. The classroom was filled with 1940s spirit as the children enjoyed a traditional wartime tea - spam, corned beef & jam sandwiches, and even a precious square of chocolate each! 🍫

A huge well done to our pupils, parents, and staff who took part in the Lisburn 10km Road Race and Fun Run last night! 🏃❤️💛💚 If you’d like to support their fundraising efforts, please visit the JustGiving page: justgiving.com/campaign/fslp…

Made for More came to school on Tuesday to deliver their Healthy Minds programme. Prep 1-3 pupils learned how to look after big feelings and Prep 4-7 learned how to best look after our minds! Thank you to the @madeformore team for a great workshop. ❤️💛💚

The sun was shining for our Prep 4 & Prep 5 Summer Hockey Tournament today! Everyone looked the part with summer clothing & accessories. 😎 Huge thanks to coaches Matthew and Ben for all their support. A great effort from all our young players! 👏❤️💛💚

Down Academy of Performing Arts, who run an extracurricular club in school, held a special ‘end of term’ performance for parents in the 1774 Pavilion last week. 🎭 The children entertained their audience with scenes from ‘Wicked’. Our young performers were sensational! ❤️💛💚

Our rugby team had a super afternoon out at the Best Rugby Tournament, hosted by Banbridge Academy and sponsored by Rory and Simon Best. 4/4 wins and great to see progress in exploiting the space and chop tackles! 🏉

Prep 4 pupils visited The Linen Museum today to learn more about life during WW2. They viewed the VE Day 80 exhibition, made spitfire planes and discovered some very interesting information about rationing. A highlight was getting our weekly ration of sweets! ❤️💛💚
