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”.

Smart School Council Debate in Year 4
In our Smart School Council session today, we debated whether it is better to have online friendships rather than face to face friendships? The children had lots of great points to discuss within their groups but they came to the unanimous decisions that face to face is always best!

Forest school club
We a nice shaded forest school session today with lots different activity stations set out in our shaded areas. The children enjoyed making natural bubble wands using either pipe cleaners and sticks or giant bubbles using large sticks and string. We had the mud kitchen and water set out where children used their imagination to create different dishes. Some children chose to build dens and some chose to make friendship bracelets and some children had a go at all the activities. What a fun packed session we had!
Reception Maths - Counting to 20
This week in Maths we have been extending our counting to 20 using concrete materials. We have been using a double ten frame and a variety of counters to represent amounts between 10-20. Whilst we did this, we noticed how we can see the numbers clearly on the frames, for example 10 and 5 makes 15. The children enjoyed developing their counting skills in this and worked hard to think about the cardinality of each number.
