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 6 Darwen Art Project
This morning Year 6 took part in the Darwen Art Project, going on the "Shop Darwen Heritage Trail" and also working with local artist Lucie Cooke to create a set of vibrant seasonal window displays in Darwen town centre. This was an absolutely fantastic activity to take part in and the children created some truly stunning artwork! St. Barnabas was the only school to brave the rain and attend, so the artwork on display is purely that of our wonderful Year 6s. Make sure to take a look at the windows of No.14 Market Street next time you walk through town!
Year 6 Art
Year 6 have begun an exciting new unit in art, called "Making My Voice Heard." This week the children were tasked with replicating patterns and experimenting with different media, such as art pencils, oil pastels and coloured pencil crayons, on a mood board of ideas.
Year 5 - Installation Art
Year 5 began exploring installation art, using everyday classroom items in unusual ways to communicate a message. They also analysed the installation art of others and the feelings it provoked.
