Everyone welcome! # Reception PE- Travelling and Balancing ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/F0C6AB8C-8063-4BF1-9BEC-55C113B0A2CD.jpeg) 6 January 2023 Today in PE , the children started with a warm up. We practised travelling in different ways including moving sideways like a crab , then freezing like a starfish - making sure we stretched all of our body parts. We then practised some of our fundamental movement skills during a rotation of activities, this included balancing, jumping and running. We worked together to improve our skills such as putting our arms out to help us to balance, and jumping landing on two feet. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/F0C6AB8C-8063-4BF1-9BEC-55C113B0A2CD.jpeg) [Reception](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-E4229B05-D0E6-42F5-8943-275259435797(2).png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-06-year-5-a-visitor-from-the-local-library) Previous ### [Year 5- A Visitor From The Local Library](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-06-year-5-a-visitor-from-the-local-library) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/104C3C2B-7010-4E82-919B-E563E2FB68A4.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-06-year-4-gymnastics) Next ### [Year 4 Gymnastics ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-06-year-4-gymnastics) ### 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/)
