Welcome to our school website.
At St Barnabas we strive to help every child to, ‘achieve great things’ and live ‘life in all its fullness’ by inspiring them with rich, fun experiences and equipping them with a love of learning. Our school has a strong Christian ethos built on our core Gospel values which the children chose themselves: Trust, Forgiveness,Friendship, Generosity, Respect, Service and Courage. St Barnabas was known in the Bible as an encourager so we try to follow his example and encourage others. With close links with our parish church, other schools in our multi-academy Trust and our dedicated team of staff, governors and parents, we take pride in, “Learning and growing together in a love-filled Christian family”.

The Big Bake Sale
'The Big Bake Sale' Dear Parents and Guardians, Next week, our School Councillors are turning into star bakers! We are putting on our aprons to help raise vital funds for The Brain Tumour Charity, an organisation dedicated to moving further and faster towards a cure. Our goal is to help reach the charity's fundraising milestones, and we would love your support to get there. We will be baking our treats on Tuesday to ensure everything is fresh for the sale on Wednesday, May 6th. Children can grab delicious homemade buttery biscuits and cupcakes for £1 each during morning break, and any leftover bakes will be available for purchase at the school gates after school. You can contribute directly via ParentPay, or children can bring cash to school on Wednesday. While bakes are £1, any additional voluntary donations are incredibly appreciated as we strive to smash our £300+ goal. Every penny raised brings us closer to a cure. Thank you in advance! The Smart School Council team and Miss Kachwalla (D.T leader).
Year 5 - Science
We explored the effect of water resistance in today’s science lesson. First we defined water resistance as a form of friction caused by moving through water and considered how swimmers and sea life are adapted to aquatic travel. We then made different shapes using plasticine and timed how quickly they moved through a 2 litre bottle of water. We found that narrow pointed objects move faster than wide flat objects due to their small surface area making them streamlined.
