They practiced throwing the ball in the air and catching it with either their right or left hand, depending on the variation. Then, they were challenged to work in small groups and catch two softballs simultaneously. This activity required speed and coordination as they aimed to catch both balls before they hit the ground. Great teamwork and effort from all. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/activitymore-4E4540A3-BEA7-4A60-934B-9A6A80926D41_(1).png) [Year 3](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [P.E](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/p-e) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_1288.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-09-27-year-5-installation-art) Previous ### [Year 5 - Installation Art](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-09-27-year-5-installation-art) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/226A4EEE-6F94-444B-9BD0-3788640794A4.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-10-01-year-6-science-designing-and-making-our-own-set-of-traffic-lights) Next ### [Year 6 Science - Designing and making our own set of traffic lights](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-10-01-year-6-science-designing-and-making-our-own-set-of-traffic-lights) ### 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/)
