Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # Year 4 - The GULP Project - Effects of Sugar ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_2841.jpeg) 17 June 2026 In this week’s GULP session, the Year 4 children were learning about the effect that sugary drinks can have on our teeth. They learned how to make healthy choices when deciding how to hydrate themselves and they started an experiment to see which drinks have the worst effect on our teeth. We will find out the results next week. The second part of the session involved physical activity. The children played invasion team games and discussed tactics, giving them the opportunity to adjust their strategies in order to score the maximum points. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_2841.jpeg) [Year 4](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-4) [PSHE](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/pshe) [Science](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/science) [P.E](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/p-e) [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_3444.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-16-year-6-darwen-literature-festival) Previous ### [Year 6 - Darwen Literature Festival ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-16-year-6-darwen-literature-festival) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_2018(1).jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-18-whole-school-worship-with-rev-matt) Next ### [Whole School Worship with Rev Matt ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-18-whole-school-worship-with-rev-matt) ### 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/)
