Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # Year 5: Peer Mediation ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/peer_med.jpg) 3 April 2025 On Wednesday Year 5 participated in their first Peer Mediation session in association with DACA and Ben from Quakers in Britain. Peer mediation empowers children to resolve conflicts peacefully and build important communication and problem-solving skills. The children are looking forward to their next two sessions and will then have the opportunity to apply to become a St Barnabas peer mediator. Our staff also had training on peer mediation yesterday too and are looking forward to seeing conflicts being resolved between the children and peer mediators. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/peer_med.jpg) [Year 5](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-5) [PSHE](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/pshe) [Mental Health and Wellbeing](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/mental-health-and-wellbeing) [Behaviour](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/behaviour) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_5112.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-04-03-worship-with-rev-ben) Previous ### [Worship with Rev.
