Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # WOW Initiative Assembly Launch ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_2405.jpeg) 8 March 2024 Today we had our WOW assembly in which we learned all about our new walk to school challenge and how we need to try to walk to school (or find an active way) at least once a week. We met Dan who is from Living Streets. He told us how we can earn badges every month by taking part. It’s so important to walk to improve our mental wellbeing, get fit and decrease pollution. We look forward to practising with the Travel Tracker next week with our newly appointed WOW Ambassadors. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/IMG_2405.jpeg) [Reception](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [Year 1](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Year 2](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-2) [Year 3](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [Year 4](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-4) [Year 5](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-5) [Year 6](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-6) [PSHE](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/pshe) [Wellbeing Wednesday](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/wellbeing-wednesday) [P.E](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/p-e) [Discussions](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/discussions) [Mental Health and Wellbeing](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/mental-health-and-wellbeing) [Enrichment](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/enrichment) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/easter_church_invite.PNG)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-08-mrs-ham-s-weekly-message) Previous ### [Mrs Ham's Weekly Message](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-08-mrs-ham-s-weekly-message) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_2469.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-08-biggest-ever-girls-football-session) Next ### [Biggest Ever Girls Football Session ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-08-biggest-ever-girls-football-session) ### 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/)
