The children then came up with a list of people that they look up to and admire, such as a; football player, actor, singer, golf player, darts player, BMX rider and a Diablos. We then discussed why they look up to these people in detail. I then showed the children three drinks which I had prepared earlier, In order to influence the children I made them believe that the orange juice was by far the best drink. We then took votes on which drink they would choose to drink, from apple juice, Vimto and orange juice. It was great to see that the children were not influenced by my choice because the majority of the children voted for the apple juice. We then discussed the choices we make, we can choose the people we want to listen to, be influenced by and follow. Jesus always set a good example when he told others to do something, such as to love each other, he did it himself. He asked his followers to do the right thing. Whilst influencers may guide some of our choices, it is important for us to remember both positive and negative consequences. Every child has the right to be protected from social media. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/activitymore-E6E82B9D-C566-4E23-A6D7-8769F563ECCB.png) [Year 5](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-5) [PSHE](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/pshe) [Online Safety](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/online-safety) [Worship Our Way](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/worship-our-way) [British Values](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/british-values) [Mental Health and Wellbeing](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/mental-health-and-wellbeing) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/76BD9627-F71C-4E69-8D55-CE53A7F4F422.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-26-year-1-lunch-time-muga-session) Previous ### [Year 1- Lunch time MUGA session](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-26-year-1-lunch-time-muga-session) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/7146FE6A-2CF2-481C-A46E-1B9765E966A9.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-26-year-4-geography-what-is-the-congo-rainforest-like) Next ### [Year 4 Geography- What is the Congo Rainforest like? ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-26-year-4-geography-what-is-the-congo-rainforest-like) ### 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/)
