Everyone welcome! # Receiving The Commonwealth Games Baton ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/6F87C848-3C7E-4821-A438-0692177B17C5.jpeg) 23 March 2022 Today we had the privilege in taking part in the Commonwealth Games Baton Relay as part of the lead up to the Commonwealth Games which will take place in Birmingham this year. We received the baton from St Peters this afternoon, with our Year 6 Sports Leaders in charge of the safe hand over. Year 6, Year 3 and Year 1 classes were there to provide a warm welcome and wave their flags. Tomorrow, Year 5, Year 4, Year 2 and Reception class will be there to wave the baton onto its next journey to St Pauls Hoddlesden. What an experience!
