We learnt a new word yesterday which was ‘invertebrate’ and we learnt that invertebrates do not have a backbone. We had a look at some minibeast habitats and went out to our forest school area and made some of our own houses for lots of different bugs. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/967865F4-150F-4F6E-BC4C-020E3927711C.jpeg) [Reception](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [Science](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/science) [Mental Health and Wellbeing](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/mental-health-and-wellbeing) [Climate action / Sustainability](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/climate-action-sustainability) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_1112.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-04-23-year-4-science-how-sound-travels) Previous ### [Year 4 - Science: How Sound Travels](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-04-23-year-4-science-how-sound-travels) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/4AE3C8F9-8BF6-4C87-BDCF-DE7EF99BFE39.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-04-24-year-1-local-geography-fieldwork) Next ### [Year 1- Local Geography Fieldwork ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-04-24-year-1-local-geography-fieldwork) ### 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/)
