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 - Computing
In this lesson, the children were introduced to the terms ‘melody’ and ‘hook’, with a focus on how hooks make songs catchy and memorable. Year 5 then used the app Garage Band to create their own hook using a range of instrumental sounds, before using this hook to write their own song.
Year 5 - PE
We continued our orienteering topic by turning our playground netball court into a map that the children had to carefully navigate. Each group was given different directions that they had to follow, with each point on the map given a number they had to record. It was another opportunity to exploit the glorious weather we have been having and it was great to watch the children work so well with each other, displaying and developing their strong talking and listening skills.
Kids with Bricks Lego Club
This week's 'Kids with Bricks' Lego club theme was super fast animals. We watched our weekly video, which showed us the fastest land, sea and airborne animals. We then set to work creating our own super fast creatures, real or imaginary. The children did a fantastic job! We also spent some time completing some of our skyscrapers from last week, since they were so huge we didn't quite complete them last time. A special well done to our Builder of the Week - Rosie!
