Everyone welcome! # Year 5 - PSHE ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_1284.jpeg) 14 October 2025 In PSHE, we explored how children can be assertive in their friendships so that they can keep themselves safe. We discussed the difference between being too passive and too aggressive, with assertiveness being a middle ground. We role played how to be assertive by using politeness humour and problem solving to maintain friendships while also establishing clear personal boundaries. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_1284.jpeg) [Year 5](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-5) [PSHE](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/pshe) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_1285.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-10-14-year-5-english) Previous ### [Year 5 - English](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-10-14-year-5-english) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-FEED123E-CA3C-46A9-93BA-B4540A87DF3D.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-10-15-year-3-computing-making-our-own-podcast) Next ### [Year 3- Computing- Making our own podcast](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-10-15-year-3-computing-making-our-own-podcast) ### 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/)
