They had to make sure that they swung their hand back and down whilst their chest faced forwards, opposite foot to rolling arm stepped forward and they bent their knees before releasing the ball. Year 1 practised this skill and then applied it to some games where they had to aim at a target such as skittles or marker cones. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/F0BE9721-CE07-4A96-89AF-15A7B542A415.jpeg) [Year 1](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [P.E](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/p-e) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-704E2414-0E22-4D2E-9F54-018382008598(1).png)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-01-23-year-3-class-worship-to-drive-or-be-driverless) Previous ### [Year 3- Class Worship-To drive or be driverless?](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-01-23-year-3-class-worship-to-drive-or-be-driverless) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_0167.png)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-01-25-year-2-p-e) Next ### [Year 2 - P.E.](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-01-25-year-2-p-e) ### 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/)
