Everyone welcome! # Year 3- Collective Worship- Should we learn sign language at school? ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/activitymore-56E640CA-5677-41D7-9A89-0C1A6517AFB2.png) 22 February 2024 Today in Year 3's class worship, we explored different ways of communicating, including prayer to connect with God and the importance of British Sign Language. The children feel learning sign language at school is vital to support the deaf community, break down barriers, and promote understanding between different communities. They also discussed the importance of respect and celebrate difference. We ended our worship by thanking God for creating each of us uniquely different. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/activitymore-56E640CA-5677-41D7-9A89-0C1A6517AFB2.png) [Worship](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/worship) [Year 3](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [Religious Education](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/religious-education) [Discussions](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/discussions) [British Values](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/british-values) [Enrichment](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/enrichment) [Christian Values](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/christian-values) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/C73CDF8B-53C5-4357-B5AA-14771552BB40.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-02-22-reception-maths-finding-different-ways-of-making-numbers-to-ten) Previous ### [Reception- Maths- finding different ways of making numbers to ten ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-02-22-reception-maths-finding-different-ways-of-making-numbers-to-ten) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_2335.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-02-22-year-5-geography) Next ### [Year 5 - Geography](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-02-22-year-5-geography) ### 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/)
