Everyone welcome! # Year 3- Learning from the Experts- Early Pancake Day ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/activitymore-A177B381-899D-4777-92EE-93F1362539E2.png) 12 February 2026 Today, we welcomed professional bakers into school for a special pancake-making workshop! By watching experts at work, the children gained a fantastic insight into the hospitality and culinary industries. It wasn’t just about the flipping and the toppings, though; the children learned that to be a great baker, you need to be a bit of a "subject superstar." They explored how Maths is essential for measuring ingredients and timing, how English helps with following recipes, and how Science is the secret behind the perfect batter. The children found the pancakes absolutely delicious! We hope today has inspired some big aspirations and future dreams in our budding chefs. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/activitymore-A177B381-899D-4777-92EE-93F1362539E2.png) [Year 3](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [Maths](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/maths) [Design Technology](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/design-technology) [Science](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/science) [Visits and Visitors](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/visits-and-visitors) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_2748.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-02-11-year-5-pshe) Previous ### [Year 5 - PSHE](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-02-11-year-5-pshe) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_3048.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-02-13-year-5-growing-our-future) Next ### [Year 5 - Growing Our Future](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-02-13-year-5-growing-our-future) ### 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/)
