Everyone welcome! # Whole School Worship: Thankfulness ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/A63B7976-D3E3-4E8D-9B56-41373FA75CE0.jpeg) 17 January 2023 It was wonderful to have our worship led by Rev Ben today. Today, we are going to be thinking about thankfulness. To begin our worship, we played a game of guess the animal. Well done to David, Carter, Ivy, Neve and Aisha for taking part. We are so thankful for God’s wonderful creations which include a frog, monkey, a fish, a panda and a lion. As we guess those wonderful animals, they are all very different. Some are big, some are small, some are colourful, some are loud and some are quiet. However, we are not always good at looking after God’s creation. When we don’t look after God’s creation like we should, he will always forgive us. Rev Ben gave us time to think about what we want to thank God for and we also had a think about how we can show our thankfulness for the amazing world we live in. Archie said he is thankful for us, Alice said she is thankful for all of the trees, Sadie is thankful for food and Carter is thankful for nature. Harlee said we shouldn’t litter, Daniel said we need to switch the lights off and Iris said that we need to care for the animals. Rev Ben led us in prayer and we joined in with a new song called ‘God of Science’. We loved the song! A huge thank you to Rev Ben. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/A63B7976-D3E3-4E8D-9B56-41373FA75CE0.jpeg) ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/A63B7976-D3E3-4E8D-9B56-41373FA75CE0.jpeg) [Worship](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/worship) [Reception](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [Year 1](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Year 2](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-2) [Year 3](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [Year 4](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-4) [Year 5](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-5) [Year 6](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-6) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/F9CE5260-290B-4E3E-BB60-51362462D808.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-16-year-1-capital-letters-full-stops-and-exclamation-marks) Previous ### [Year 1- Capital letters,full stops and exclamation marks. ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-16-year-1-capital-letters-full-stops-and-exclamation-marks) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/A9A1CF0A-3351-43D1-97EC-088ECB62B9C9.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-18-year-3-english-making-predictions) Next ### [Year 3 English- Making Predictions](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-01-18-year-3-english-making-predictions) ### 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/)
