We talked about how things like rising postage costs have led to more people sending digital or hand-delivered cards. The children shared their own family Christmas traditions and thought about the real meaning of the season, focusing on the story of Jesus’ birth. Lyla ended the worship by reading a prayer, thanking God for all the joy and excitement that Christmas brings. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/activitymore-06AEA193-9949-4436-9EEA-13F7560D9297.png) [Worship](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/worship) [Year 3](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [History](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/history) [Religious Education](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/religious-education) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_6121.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-12-16-reception-year-of-prayer) Previous ### [Reception: Year of Prayer ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-12-16-reception-year-of-prayer) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_6232.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-12-18-reception-christmas-party) Next ### [Reception Christmas Party](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2024-12-18-reception-christmas-party) ### 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/)
