Everyone welcome! # Reception: Junk Modelling ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/B1E58989-331B-494A-BCE2-408593257D93.jpeg) 16 October 2024 The children in Reception found a box in class. We discussed what we could do with it. The children said we could hide in it or decorate it. As a class, we decided to make a house. The children couldn’t believe that we could make a house from a recycled box! Together we painted the house and added materials to it. We then decided it was a house for the Funnybones Skeleton family. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/B1E58989-331B-494A-BCE2-408593257D93.jpeg) [Reception](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [English](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/english) [Design Technology](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/design-technology) [Art and Design](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/art-and-design) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/940F5833-32A8-475B-A1D1-42F850154A2B.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-10-15-reception-black-history-month-worship) Previous ### [Reception: Black History Month Worship](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-10-15-reception-black-history-month-worship) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_2446.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-10-17-year-4-the-great-big-live-assembly) Next ### [Year 4 - The Great Big Live Assembly](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-10-17-year-4-the-great-big-live-assembly) ### 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/) ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/events/Open_Days_2026-27_(3).png)
