The children practised their stance, arm position and follow-through, aiming towards a specific target and adjusting the speed and direction of their throw to improve accuracy. The children demonstrated excellent focus and perseverance as they refined their technique and challenged themselves to hit their targets. ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_0441(1).jpeg) [Year 6](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-6) [P.E](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/p-e) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_7104.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-14-worship-with-bishop-philip-what-can-you-offer-this-year) Previous ### [Worship with Bishop Philip: What can you offer this year? ](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-14-worship-with-bishop-philip-what-can-you-offer-this-year) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/Open_Days_2026-27.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-15-open-days-for-our-september-2027-intake) Next ### [Open Days for our September 2027 intake](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-15-open-days-for-our-september-2027-intake) ### 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/)
