Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # Year 1- Geography ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/EB21A57E-232B-477C-8E0F-DB95004D48F8.jpeg) 11 February 2025 This week, Year 1 are enjoying a Geography themed Role Play and Investigation Area. In the Investigation Area, we have been creating our own booklets to represent where we all live on a larger scale and have gradually zoomed into where we live on a smaller scale. For example, we are part of the world and Europe but on a smaller scale we live in Darwen. In the Role Play Area, we have been taking on the role of a travel agent. We have had to book a holiday (in the United Kingdom) for a customer. The customer has had to choose a destination e.g. Scotland or more specifically Edinburgh and the travel agent has had to advise them about different types of accommodation and the best mode of transport. We understand that if we are travelling to Scotland, Wales or staying in England then a car, bus or train will be suitable but if we are travelling to Northern Ireland then a boat or aeroplane would be necessary. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/EB21A57E-232B-477C-8E0F-DB95004D48F8.jpeg) [Year 1](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Geography](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/geography) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-AF179941-92FB-492E-B2B2-D77877BA5175.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-02-10-mad-science-assembly-whole-school) Previous ### [Mad Science Assembly- Whole School](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-02-10-mad-science-assembly-whole-school) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_3894.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-02-12-year-4-re-buddhism-and-prayer) Next ### [Year 4 - RE: Buddhism and Prayer](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-02-12-year-4-re-buddhism-and-prayer) ### 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/)
