Everyone welcome! # Year 3- Bringing the Stone Age to Life with PrimeVR ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/activitymore-011A4A49-2E39-4979-9EE5-4B336BAD9651.png) 23 June 2026 The children had an absolutely incredible time during our PrimeVR experience day, with the highlight being their deep dive into the Stone Age. Through the power of virtual reality, they didn’t just learn about history; they lived it, transported thousands of years back in time to explore ancient landscapes and see firsthand how early humans survived. The children came face-to-face with woolly mammoths, examined prehistoric cave art up close, and discovered how Stone Age people communicated. It was an unforgettable, immersive adventure that truly brought our history topic to life!![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/activitymore-011A4A49-2E39-4979-9EE5-4B336BAD9651.png) [Year 3](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [History](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/history) [Computing](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/computing) [Enrichment](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/enrichment) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_4354(1).jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-22-year-5-english) Previous ### [Year 5 - English](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-22-year-5-english) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/1000033226_(1).jpg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-24-year-6-junior-jam-french) Next ### [Year 6 Junior Jam - French](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-24-year-6-junior-jam-french) ### 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/) ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/events/Open_Days_2026-27_(3).png)
