Everyone welcome! # Year 1: Celebrating Earth Day ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/ABAE3EAB-B96F-45AC-B5FF-D7838728BFA7.jpeg) 22 April 2026 This morning, we celebrated Earth Day. We came to school dressed in green and blue. We watched a short video from the BBC about Earth Day, climate change and ways we can help our Earth. We then created our own fizzy Earth using baking soda, vinegar and paint. Finally, we wrote some beautiful thank you prayers to God, thanking Him for the nature on our Earth like trees, snow, animals and the sea.![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/ABAE3EAB-B96F-45AC-B5FF-D7838728BFA7.jpeg) [Year 1](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Christian Values](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/christian-values) [Climate action / Sustainability](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/climate-action-sustainability) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_3809.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-04-21-year-5-pshe) Previous ### [Year 5 - PSHE](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-04-21-year-5-pshe) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_1278.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-04-23-whole-school-worship-with-rev-ben) Next ### [Whole School Worship with Rev Ben ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-04-23-whole-school-worship-with-rev-ben) ### 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/)
