Everyone welcome! # Year 3- Weekly Makaton Learning ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/activitymore-F231D4E7-D45F-4F91-AA21-274BB0CF287A.png) 21 May 2025 Since Mrs. Govan launched Makaton signing in our classrooms, we've been enthusiastically learning a new sign each week. It's been wonderful to see everyone practicing signs for "hello," "goodbye," "happy," and "sad." Each week, Cassidy confidently demonstrates the new sign and then tests us on the previous week's. This has been a fantastic way for us to learn how to communicate with Lenny and other children with learning needs. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/activitymore-F231D4E7-D45F-4F91-AA21-274BB0CF287A.png) [Year 3](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [SEND](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/send) [British Values](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/british-values) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_8245.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-20-bwd-schools-bee-stinger-netball-champions) Previous ### [BwD Schools Bee Stinger Netball Champions ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-20-bwd-schools-bee-stinger-netball-champions) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-44B9431E-A278-40FB-B077-EFE42664AB95.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-22-year-3-understanding-the-risks-staying-safe-online) Next ### [Year 3- Understanding the Risks: Staying Safe Online](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-05-22-year-3-understanding-the-risks-staying-safe-online) ### 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/)
