Everyone welcome! # Year 5- Science- Identifying changes that take place during puberty ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/activitymore-0F85959F-734B-454D-9427-335DC960385C.png) 4 July 2023 In science this afternoon, the children were learning about some of the changes they may experience during puberty. We recapped the unit's learning so far to summarise the changes they have experienced since birth. The children then worked in pairs and labelled the body parts that change during puberty. We then discussed some of the important ways that the children can look after their bodies during puberty, such as washing more frequently, eating a healthy and balanced diet and ensuring they get enough sleep. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/activitymore-0F85959F-734B-454D-9427-335DC960385C.png) [Year 5](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-5) [PSHE](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/pshe) [Science](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/science) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_0467.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-07-04-year-2-bar-charts) Previous ### [Year 2 - Bar Charts](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-07-04-year-2-bar-charts) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_6153.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-07-04-st-barnabas-represent-the-district-in-the-lancashire-school-games-2023) Next ### [St Barnabas represent the district in The Lancashire School Games 2023](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-07-04-st-barnabas-represent-the-district-in-the-lancashire-school-games-2023) ### 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/)
