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 1 RE: Where Does Our Food Come From?
In RE, we had 6 mystery foods. The foods were banana, chocolate, mango chutney, pineapple, rice and dates. The children had to taste test each food. Then, they listened to three clues to decide where the food had come from and put the food on the map.They were very shocked to find that none of these foods originate in the UK and have to travel for us to eat them. We made sure we thanked God for the food that we had and for allowing us to try food from other countries.
Year 5 - Computing
Year 5 used the Garage Band app to create sonic logos for different brands. We analysed Coca-Cola advertisements and identified the different sounds that contribute to its brand identity. The children then had to create a short sonic logo that matched a brand of their choice.

Year 5 - English
In English, we used drama to explore the feelings of a person exploring the surface of Mars. We first considered the positive and negative emotions of being the first to step upon a new planet far from home, exploring and collecting scientific data. Then we acted out the role of the astronaut, considering how those emotions can be shown through action and dialogue.
