NULS Prep Open Evening

Where Every Child Thrives: You’re Invited to NULS Prep

Thursday 21 May | 4:30pm – 6:30pm

We invite you to join our Prep Leadership Team for a personal guided tour of our beautiful school, where our innovative curriculum and extensive co-curricular opportunities make NULS Prep a place where pupils truly thrive.

We provide a nurturing environment where children aged 2 to 11 are encouraged to explore their passions—whether that’s diving into our on-site pool, performing in our Drama studios, or exploring the outdoors in our Prep Adventures Programme.

Every day at NULS Prep is different and we are proud to provide an educational experience where activities such as on-site Swimming Lessons in our 25m pool, Science Lessons in our labs, extensive Music and Drama provision, and activities such as our Prep Adventures Programme, Forest School and Fencing sessions ensure that every child enjoys a diverse and exciting experience.

Please provide your email address for more details closer to the time and so that we can contact you about this event. *

Note: Please be advised that the information on this form is for communication and event preparation purposes. You will have the opportunity to choose to provide further details to the School upon attendance and registration at the event.
