Everyone welcome! # Year 1 D&T- Sliding Mechanisms ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/B223CDA2-C3FF-479B-8BFB-046C978E6F59.jpeg) 31 October 2024 In D&T this week, Year 1 created their own moving mechanisms. Their models showed a rabbit coming out of a hat (up and down) and a car moving along a road (forwards and backwards). They worked incredibly hard to do this independently and their models were a success. Year 1 will be using these skills when they make their Christmas themed moving picture books in a couple of weeks. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/B223CDA2-C3FF-479B-8BFB-046C978E6F59.jpeg) [Year 1](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Design Technology](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/design-technology) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_2564(2).jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-10-30-whole-school-worship-allhallowtide) Previous ### [Whole-School Worship: Allhallowtide](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-10-30-whole-school-worship-allhallowtide) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/FBF1ABAD-0275-4C9A-BF8D-DD9784CF1458.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-11-01-reception-comparing-who-has-more) Next ### [Reception - Comparing who has more? ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-11-01-reception-comparing-who-has-more) ### 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/)
