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”.

History in Year 4
In our history lesson today, Year 4 explored why trading was important to the Vikings. They had to describe what the Vikings traded with, identify trading routes and find out if the Vikings should be classed as traders or raiders. We found out that traders journeyed across Europe and obtained and exchanged many different types of goods that included honey, glass, pottery vessels, metals and animal fur.
Year 1 PSHE: Taking Care Of Something
Today we thought about the word “need” and what this means. A need is a requirement or necessity for something to function. In our class, we have a giant sunflower plant and one of it’s needs is to be watered daily so it can grow. We talked about the purpose of our classroom which is to be safe and to learn inside. Our classroom also has needs so that it can function properly. We have different classroom jobs that we take turns to do such as bin monitor, lights monitor and book monitor to ensure that our classroom is able to be used appropriately.
