Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # Year 4 Food Technology - Biscuit sampling and package evaluation ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_7945.jpeg) 6 May 2025 This week we started our new food technology unit on adapting a recipe. We have chosen to focus on biscuits and we started by evaluating package design and what a target audience is. We then tasted several biscuits including chocolate cookies, fruit shortcake and pink wafers looking at taste, texture and appearance. The children discussed the products in lots of detail and shared reasons as to why they liked/dislike certain biscuits, giving them a star rating. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/IMG_7945.jpeg) [Year 4](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-4) [Design Technology](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/design-technology) [Discussions](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/discussions) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/Barney-s_Best_Bits_(2).png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-02-barney-s-best-bits-summer-1-week-2) Previous ### [Barney's Best Bits- Summer 1 Week 2](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-02-barney-s-best-bits-summer-1-week-2) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_7946.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-06-random-acts-of-kindness-around-our-community) Next ### [Random Acts of Kindness around our community ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-06-random-acts-of-kindness-around-our-community) ### 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/)
