Open Events
We have tried to arrange our events throughout the year, so that they are not only at a time to suit you, but also offer you and your child a variety of experiences.
Twice a year, we invite current Year 1 or Year 2 students in for Freemen’s Fun: an afternoon of activities specifically designed for your child to discover Freemen’s for themselves.
Once a year, we invite current Year 5 students in for Discover Freemen's: a morning or afternoon of activities designed for your child to see what Freemen's is like, in advance of sitting the entrance exam the following year, when they are in Year 6.
These events get booked up quickly, so please book early to avoid disappointment.
Given the current situation, and until we are able to welcome you to the School, we are offering the option to book a personal appointment with one of our Admissions Team.
Digital Appointments available with our Admissions Team
To arrange an appointment with a member of our Admissions Department at your convenience, please email admissions@freemens.org. Our team will be able to answer all of your questions until such time as we are able to welcome you to the School for a tour.

Freemen's Fun (for children in Year 1 at the time of the event): Wednesday 28 April 2021 4:30pm - 5:45pm
Join us for our free after school activity session for children who are in Year 1 at their current school, at the time of the event. Pupils are invited to join the fun and take part in two of the following activities (with a third selected in reserve):
- Acting Up - a fun drama session
- Art Attack - getting creative with arts and crafts
- Cool Computing - designing a picture on the computer
- Game on - lively PE games
- Musical Maestros - creating music with percussion
- Young Investigators - fun science experiments
We do our utmost to allocate children to their first two choices, but places will be allocated on a first come first served basis so it is advisable to choose a third activity in reserve. Each activity lasts approximately 30 minutes and parents and siblings are welcome to stay and enjoy refreshments in our Sixth Form Centre, whilst their children are enjoying the fun. The Admissions Team will be on hand to answer any questions about the admissions process and current parents from our Freemen's School Association (FSA) will be available to chat about what The School community has to offer.
Places are limited, so booking is essential. Places can be reserved by completing the form below. On booking, we will contact you again closer to the event with final details.
