Welcome to our school website.
At St Barnabas we strive to help every child to, ‘achieve great things’ and live ‘life in all its fullness’ by inspiring them with rich, fun experiences and equipping them with a love of learning. Our school has a strong Christian ethos built on our core Gospel values which the children chose themselves: Trust, Forgiveness,Friendship, Generosity, Respect, Service and Courage. St Barnabas was known in the Bible as an encourager so we try to follow his example and encourage others. With close links with our parish church, other schools in our multi-academy Trust and our dedicated team of staff, governors and parents, we take pride in, “Learning and growing together in a love-filled Christian family”.

Year 5 - Carbon Monoxide Workshop
The Carbon Monoxide Crew visited Year 5 on Tuesday to create awareness about the potentially dangerous gas. The children engaged with lots of activities to understand what Carbon monoxide is and where it comes from (incomplete burning). We learned what the signs and symptoms of having a leak are before coming up with ways to protect our homes. If you suspect Carbon monoxide, please open all doors and windows and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 immediately.
Warhammer Club
On Monday, the Warhammer Club continued painting their miniatures. After applying washes, the children learned how to dry brush the base layers with lighter colours using make-up brushes. This acted to highlight the model as if light was reflected off the raised surfaces of the model creating the appearance of depth and detail.
KS2 Football Practice
Today’s football session focused on the effective use of a target man, emphasising intelligent movement to create space, link play and support attacking transitions. Players worked on timing their runs, offering clear passing options and using body positioning to shield the ball and bring teammates into the game.
