They started with a dance session to warm up and they were given some scarves to use. They then had a go at singing ‘A Whole New World’ from Aladdin. They were amazing at remembering the lyrics to the song ! The next session was Music where they learned all about the instruments Boomwackers. They were shown how to use the boomwackers and discussed how they make their sound. They even had a go at using them and learned the names of the different notes. In the next session they watched some clips and they were asked to identify how the characters were feeling. They then used a new app this week called Toon Tastic to make a setting and characters to create a story- they had to create a beginning, a middle and an end for their story. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/BF8D6557-517F-42E7-8B53-4ECD07B588DE.jpeg) [Reception](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [Music](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/music) [Computing](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/computing) [Performing Arts](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/performing-arts) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/189EB54C-77D0-477E-9BE6-414AD9367DF9.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-06-28-gymnastics-competition) Previous ### [Gymnastics competition ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-06-28-gymnastics-competition) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/5017C8F6-9752-49B2-B8CB-0D1764B617F5.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-06-30-reception-treasure-map-making) Next ### [Reception Treasure Map Making ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2022-06-30-reception-treasure-map-making) ### Personal Development - [News](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/protected-characteristics) ##### Location Knowlesly Road Darwen Lancashire BB3 2JA ##### Contact Us 01254 702996 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stbarnabasce/) - [X](https://twitter.com/stbarnabasce) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Barnabas Primary School, A Church of England Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/) ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/events/Open_Days_2026-27_(3).png)
