We are thrilled to announce an exciting new chapter for Newtownards Nursery School!

This year marks the beginning of our Shared Education journey in partnership with Bangor Integrated Nursery School. Together, we are working to create meaningful opportunities for children, staff, and families to connect, learn, and celebrate diversity.

Our collaboration is part of the ASPIRE Project, a programme designed to foster inclusion and understanding by bringing schools together across different communities. Through shared activities, joint learning experiences, and family engagement, the ASPIRE Project helps children develop friendships, respect, and empathy—skills that will last a lifetime. It’s all about building bridges and creating a stronger, more united future for everyone.

We can’t wait to share updates and stories as this exciting partnership grows!
