Everyone welcome! # Year 1 Science- Exploring Seeds ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/49980116-6020-4ED1-9BE0-FDFC192C8439.jpeg) 25 April 2024 Today in Science, Year 1 learnt about what happens to a seed. They looked at lots of different seeds and had to predict what type of tree, fruit or vegetable it would grow into. We talked the importance of plants including trees for survival. Year 1 came up with some amazing ideas such as plants providing us with food, helping us to breathe, providing wood for furniture and houses, providing us with paper, providing a habitat for animals and making the environment a brighter place. We also talked about how many plants are used in medicines. Tomorrow, they will be planting a tomato seed and we will hopefully get the chance to see it grow over the next couple of months. We hope to see the roots, stem, leaves and fruit (tomatoes) that it will develop as it grows. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/49980116-6020-4ED1-9BE0-FDFC192C8439.jpeg) [Year 1](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Science](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/science) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/4AE3C8F9-8BF6-4C87-BDCF-DE7EF99BFE39.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-04-24-year-1-local-geography-fieldwork) Previous ### [Year 1- Local Geography Fieldwork ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-04-24-year-1-local-geography-fieldwork) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/A1DF3793-2826-4345-BD8C-FCA8869ADAA0.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-04-26-year-3-persuasive-text-why-should-you-visit-north-america) Next ### [Year 3 - Persuasive Text- Why should you visit North America?](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-04-26-year-3-persuasive-text-why-should-you-visit-north-america) ### 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/)
