Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # Year 2 - Year of Prayer ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_3473.png) 20 March 2025 Here are the last two weeks of Year 2's Year of Prayer. Both weeks, the children have written prayers for different reasons. Last week, we wrote prayers to say sorry to God. We said sorry for either something we have done or for something happening in the world we are sorry for. After we had written them, we tore them into pieces and threw them into the air. We discussed how doing this was like we were moving on and being forgiven. This week, it was time for a game of the floor is lava! Each child had to jump into a love heart with a partner. Every time this happened, we said prayers to say thank you to God. We had very thoughtful prayers including saying thank you for: fruit and vegetables, our homes, being healthy, our friends, living in a safe country and our families. It was a lovely opportunity to go into their spirituality garden and give thanks for all the amazing things on our lives. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_3473.png) [Year 2](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-2) [Religious Education](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/religious-education) [Spirituality](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/spirituality) [Year of Prayer](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-of-prayer) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_0070_(1).jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-19-year-6-mrs-doubtfire-covent-garden-trafalgar-square) Previous ### [Year 6- Mrs Doubtfire, Covent Garden & Trafalgar Square](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-19-year-6-mrs-doubtfire-covent-garden-trafalgar-square) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/live_streaming.PNG)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-21-year-3-online-safety-live-streaming) Next ### [Year 3- Online Safety- Live Streaming](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-21-year-3-online-safety-live-streaming) ### 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/)
