Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # Mad Science After School Club- Slime Time-The Science Behind the Goo! ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/activitymore-0531F96A-D333-4060-97E9-26B37E4DC7F2.png) 17 March 2025 Today, our young scientists had an exciting, hands-on adventure in the world of Mad Science Slime! The children explored the science of polymers while creating their own colourful, stretchy, and squishy slime. Each child chose their favourite colour, mixing and experimenting like real chemists to bring their slimy creations to life. The children put their slime to the test in our Mad Science Slime Olympics, stretching, bouncing, and squishing their creations to see whose slime was the stretchiest, stickiest, and most creative. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/activitymore-0531F96A-D333-4060-97E9-26B37E4DC7F2.png) [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) [Science](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/science) [Clubs](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/clubs) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/A2729350-85D6-4852-BF1C-E613495F103C.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-14-friday-celebration-worship) Previous ### [Friday Celebration Worship ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-14-friday-celebration-worship) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/BA6A9D18-E726-463D-B651-76A17363E5F3.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-18-year-6-gaelic-football) Next ### [Year 6 Gaelic Football](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-18-year-6-gaelic-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/)
