Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # Year 4- The Big Plastic Debate ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_2333.jpeg) 7 March 2024 In our Class Worship today we looked at The Big Plastic Debate. As part of this initiative we will count the plastic that we use at home and try to help put a stop to our plastic packaging problem that we have in the UK. We looked at what type of plastics we use and how to identify these using the plastic ID tool available through the website. We can record this and then use the unique code to generate both our class and school footprint. This is all being promoted by Greenpeace who hope to build a strong global plastic treaty to phase out plastic production for good! ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_2333.jpeg) [Year 4](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-4) [Discussions](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/discussions) [School council](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/school-council) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_2335(1).jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-07-year-4-english-non-fiction-explanation-texts) Previous ### [Year 4 English - Non-Fiction - Explanation Texts ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-07-year-4-english-non-fiction-explanation-texts) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/C8565FFE-712D-4E19-8D39-78111E3C24DD.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-07-year-1-science-perform-a-test) Next ### [Year 1 Science- Perform a Test](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-07-year-1-science-perform-a-test) ### 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/)
