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”.

Year 4 - National Day of Prayer for Schools
In our Class Worship, we focused on The National Day of Prayer for Schools when Christians across the UK set aside time to pray for their local schools. As a class, we decided to write our own special lunchtime prayers thinking about everyone that is involved in making our lunches from the farmers who grew the crops to the kitchen staff who serve it or our mums and dads that may have made our packed lunches.
Welcome Wellbeing Warriors in Year 4
Today our new Wellbeing Warriors were given their Ambassador badges along with their SCARF lanyards so that children can recognise them and they can support them with new ideas and initiatives along with running our Living Streets Walk to School Campaign. The children are super keen and enthusiastic about their roles and we can’t wait to see what they do. A big welcome to Seb, Elijah, Ella and Heidi.
Year 2 English- Analysing the Features of the Example Text
Year 2 have been busy in their English lessonS this week. They have been familiarising themselves with a text based on a book called ‘The River’ by Marc Martin. Today, they had to analyse the text for features such as verbs ending in -ed, noun phrases, words to show the passing of time and repetitive phrases. We were particularly impressed with how many -ed verbs they managed to find! Year 2 will soon be using these same features in their own writing. Keep up the good work!
