Everyone welcome! # Transition Day- Year 2 - 3- A Rewarding Afternoon ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/activitymore-4E966632-AF14-4D13-8D06-673BF8692F16.png) 3 July 2025 This afternoon, we focused on Maths and Reading . They read remarkably well, and their ability to summarise what they'd read showcased excellent comprehension. In Maths, they clearly displayed a strong grasp of place value and numbers, building a solid foundation in these essential areas. Beyond their academic achievements, it was evident how much growth and maturity they have developed. They are definitely ready for Year 3! As a special recognition for their hard work and how much they enjoyed their time experiencing Year 3 today, they were rewarded with a session on the outdoor gym and worship with Rev Matt. They've had such a positive experience and are eager to go home and share all about their day with their parents and carers! ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/activitymore-4E966632-AF14-4D13-8D06-673BF8692F16.png) [Worship](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/worship) [Year 2](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-2) [Year 3](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [English](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/english) [Maths](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/maths) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_5195.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-07-02-year-4-pe-tennis-skills) Previous ### [Year 4 - PE: Tennis Skills](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-07-02-year-4-pe-tennis-skills) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_6452.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-07-04-friday-celebration-worship) Next ### [Friday Celebration Worship](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-07-04-friday-celebration-worship) ### 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/)
