Everyone welcome! # Year 3 - History- Creating a timeline from 4500 BC to the Modern Era ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/828EA2C6-0AAE-42DF-941F-B0E97FAF24B3.jpeg) 14 May 2025 For our history unit this term, we are focusing on prehistoric Britain focusing on the Stone Age, Bronze Age and the Iron Age. We began by looking at how our visual timetable reflects the present and the past, before exploring the timeline in our school hall charting human history from 4500 BC to the modern era. The children chose facts that they found interesting and shared these with the class. We then created our own timelines recognising that we explore history from the present era of 2000AD and move back through time prior to the birth of Christ which we marked on our times as BC. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/828EA2C6-0AAE-42DF-941F-B0E97FAF24B3.jpeg) [Year 3](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [History](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/history) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-F139ED24-EB54-4049-B49B-D7D743FC8A5D.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-13-year-3-year-of-prayer-praying-for-the-world) Previous ### [Year 3- Year of prayer-Praying for the World](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-13-year-3-year-of-prayer-praying-for-the-world) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/075BE5AC-C8B6-4C63-B9EA-3E2571010158.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-15-year-1-class-worship-young-inventors) Next ### [Year 1 Class Worship- Young Inventors ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-15-year-1-class-worship-young-inventors) ### 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/) ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/events/Open_Days_2026-27_(3).png)
