We looked at videos of the waves crashing against the cliffs and discussed what has happened over time. We looked at houses that had moved closer the cliff edge and decided we wouldn’t like to live there! We then conducted an investigation by crashing the water against the rocks in a tray and watched them erode away. The children also enjoyed investigating this in their choosing time. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/12208A5D-177E-4844-85D3-C51985BD697C.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) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/7FEE0328-7D48-469A-8125-20CAE0F68579.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-06-29-reception-maths-sharing) Previous ### [Reception - Maths - Sharing ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-06-29-reception-maths-sharing) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/23A44BE7-ACB3-429F-B1F6-ABEE5A2ED6C6.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-06-29-year-1-maths-using-tens-and-ones-to-make-numbers-to-100) Next ### [Year 1 Maths Using Tens and Ones to Make Numbers to 100](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-06-29-year-1-maths-using-tens-and-ones-to-make-numbers-to-100) ### 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/)
