Everyone welcome! # Year 1- Year of Prayer- Resilience ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/A95A45DD-56C0-4B5F-823C-0A431227CBBC.jpeg) 10 June 2025 This week, as part of the Diocesan Year of Prayer, Year 1 reflected on the theme of resilience, praying for God’s strength to help us persevere—even when things feel challenging or we feel like giving up. To bring this theme to life, the children chose 12 classroom items. Miss Flynn then hid these items around the classroom, and the children were tasked with finding them. Some were tucked away in tricky spots, but with determination, teamwork, and a resilient mindset, they rose to the challenge! The activity was great fun, and the children thoroughly enjoyed this week’s focus in our Year of Prayer. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/A95A45DD-56C0-4B5F-823C-0A431227CBBC.jpeg) [Worship](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/worship) [Year 1](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Religious Education](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/religious-education) [Year of Prayer](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-of-prayer) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/23B40FE0-AE2B-4F5A-B3D0-092C6B26C132.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-06-10-year-1-attend-the-children-s-literature-festival-at-darwen-library) Previous ### [Year 1 Attend the Children’s Literature Festival at Darwen Library ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-06-10-year-1-attend-the-children-s-literature-festival-at-darwen-library) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-995C0432-62BC-4209-AF52-2BB42799DF25.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-06-11-year-3-class-worship-jesus-teaches-us-to-forgive) Next ### [Year 3- Class Worship-Jesus Teaches Us to Forgive](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-06-11-year-3-class-worship-jesus-teaches-us-to-forgive) ### 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/)
