In the creative and construction areas they have been building a sukkah. They have learnt that some Jews celebrate harvest by building a sukkah and spending time in there during their harvest festival (Sukkot). For example, they might enjoy a meal to give thanks or to say a prayer of thankfulness. They do this to remember all of the Jews that had to sleep in the wilderness as they fled from slavery and to give thanks for many things such as food and shelter. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/7B3CC86A-EB89-417E-BC64-DA54CC6B9B2D.jpeg) [Year 1](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Religious Education](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/religious-education) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_0408.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-10-05-wow-group-led-class-worship) Previous ### [WOW group led Class Worship ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-10-05-wow-group-led-class-worship) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_1168.JPG)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-10-05-reception-hand-hygiene) Next ### [Reception Hand Hygiene](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-10-05-reception-hand-hygiene) ### 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/)
