Everyone welcome! # Reception- Duckling visit from Nightingale’s Farm ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_3499.jpeg) 11 November 2026 ![](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_3499.jpeg) Today we had a very exciting visit from Steph, Thomas and Katie from Nightingales farm who very kindly brought in their one week old ducklings to show us. This linked brilliantly with our focus on birthdays this week as part of our Celebrations topic. We had a lovely time holding the ducklings, watching them eat and play in the water.
