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”.
We would welcome you to come along and visit our school as ‘Every day is an open day at St Barnabas’.

Year 5 - Rotakids
This week marks the end of our most recent charity project in association with Darwen Rotary Club. We collected over 60 teddies and plushes from the ever-generous children and families of St Barnabas. Some will be heading abroad to children in war zones with the Teddy Trust, while others will support more local families. Thank you to everyone who contributed and well done to Year 5, whose enthusiasm, posters, comic books and passionate speeches made it all possible.
