Everyone welcome! # Year 2 - History ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_0593.png) 14 March 2024 This week in History, we continued our learning looking at Monarchs. In previous lessons we learnt about our current monarch King Charles III. This week we went back nearly 1000 years to 1066 and the Battle of Hastings. We looked into the Norman Conquest and the events that occurred leading to William of Normandy becoming king. We then looked at the Bayeux Tapestry which shows scenes from the Battle. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_0593.png) [Year 2](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-2) [History](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/history) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/DC28D266-6EC7-4CD9-A359-E0188F711FF1.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-13-year-1-pe-athletics) Previous ### [Year 1 PE- Athletics ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-13-year-1-pe-athletics) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-B77942D0-1DBD-456E-852D-81FF18534C5B.png)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-15-year-3-gymnastics-use-apparatus-to-perform-jumping-actions) Next ### [Year 3- Gymnastics- Use apparatus to perform jumping actions.](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-03-15-year-3-gymnastics-use-apparatus-to-perform-jumping-actions) ### 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/)
