Everyone welcome! # Reception: Muddy Monday ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_6340.jpeg) 15 May 2023 The children in Reception visited Whitehall park for their Muddy Monday session. They climbed trees, built bug houses, found creatures and discussed their habitats and created their own games. The children enjoyed looking under logs to discover minibeasts. They have all been super explorers. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_6340.jpeg) [Reception](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [Geography](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/geography) [Science](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/science) [Mental Health and Wellbeing](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/mental-health-and-wellbeing) [Enrichment](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/enrichment) [Climate action / Sustainability](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/climate-action-sustainability) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-853781D7-B00E-471D-BF98-0E6DC87E7577.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-05-15-year-5-p-e-bowling-skills) Previous ### [Year 5- P.E- Bowling skills](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-05-15-year-5-p-e-bowling-skills) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/23FAB46A2908D83CB0D6A8AFA690D6C0.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-05-15-good-ofsted-report) Next ### ['Good' Ofsted Report](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-05-15-good-ofsted-report) ### 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/)
