Everyone welcome! # Year 5 - Maya Gods ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_1443.jpeg) 2 November 2023 This week Year 5 have been exploring what the Maya believed in? The children were exposed to a variety of gods that the Maya worshipped and the children created their own fact file on their favourite God. The children focussed especially on the human and animal characteristics of their chosen god and these gods were important to the Mayan civilisation. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_1443.jpeg) [Year 5](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-5) [History](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/history) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/6EE6772C-0F34-4450-A2FC-7B40C52E1EBE.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-11-02-year-2-science) Previous ### [Year 2 - Science ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-11-02-year-2-science) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_1444.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-11-02-year-5-and-6-football) Next ### [Year 5 and 6 football](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-11-02-year-5-and-6-football) ### 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/)
