Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # Monday Worship: All Hallow’s Eve, All Saints' Day and All Souls’ Day ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/9F40B180-1533-4636-8B8F-8FE6A5BC0AEF.jpeg) 31 October 2022 Today is All Hallows Eve. We noticed that the word 'hallow' was in the Lord's Prayer that we sang on the way into Worship. It means Holy. Tomorrow, it is All Saints day which is a Christian celebration. A Saint is somebody who is really special and has done something really wonderful. Leonora said a Saint is somebody who follows God and Jesus’ example. On Wednesday it is All Soul’s Day and we remember everybody who has passed away. We watched a video about the origin of Halloween and All Hallow’s Eve. It was celebrated thousands of years ago by the Celts. Christians then celebrated it and honoured all of the Saints. Mrs Ham asked the children about the names of different Saints. Ella said Saint Barnabas, Matthew said Saint Paul, Miles said Saint James, Jack said Saint George, Charlie-Rose said Saint Joseph and Sofia said Saint Edward. The children noticed that Saints have halos around their heads. Mrs Ham shared some images of different Saints and which country they were the patron saint of. During our reflection, we thought about what we could do to follow Jesus, live our lives well and be Saints ourselves. We thought about what kind of person we really want to be. We ended our worship by singing ‘Oh when the Saints, go marching in’. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/51A1502A-159A-4F3B-AB63-CE3E67EDE366.jpeg) [Worship](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/worship) [Reception](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [Year 1](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Year 2](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-2) [Year 3](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [Year 4](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-4) [Year 5](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-5) [Year 6](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-6) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/5E543D17-27BE-4F53-8F93-3B247AD2A97D.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-10-20-autumn-1-newsletter) Previous ### [Autumn 1 Newsletter](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-10-20-autumn-1-newsletter) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_7605.JPG)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-10-31-p-e-dance-year-5) Next ### [P.E-Dance- Year 5](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-10-31-p-e-dance-year-5) ### Personal Development - [News](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/protected-characteristics) ##### Location Knowlesly Road Darwen Lancashire BB3 2JA ##### Contact Us 01254 702996 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stbarnabasce/) - [X](https://twitter.com/stbarnabasce) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Barnabas Primary School, A Church of England Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
