They had to choose appropriate materials to represent the texture of different parts of their image such as rocks, a polar bear, mountains, the sea and the sky. The children really impressed us with their well thought out choices. They chose wool, felt, fluff and feathers for the polar bear and glittered paper, rocks, corrugated paper and varied wallpapers for the mountains. Some children chose corrugated paper, wallpaper or glittered paper to reflect a rough sea but others chose foam, tissue paper and plastic if they wanted a smoother sea. Well done Year 1. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/1140AF1B-8D5C-4AB8-B9DE-D25C817B051C.jpeg) [Year 1](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Art and Design](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/art-and-design) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/84B5A700-595A-4807-BD1E-F700F65A1553.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-10-11-year-3-smart-school-council-recycling) Previous ### [Year 3 - Smart School Council - Recycling](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-10-11-year-3-smart-school-council-recycling) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/C2C42267-51AB-4B79-ADEA-10C210B93CBC.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-10-11-year-4-maths-3d-shapes) Next ### [Year 4 - Maths: 3D Shapes](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-10-11-year-4-maths-3d-shapes) ### 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/)
