We made our pipe cleaners into bracelets and linked them together with our partner we then prayed for people who may be lonely and have no friends. We then unlinked our pipe cleaners and looped them around our wrist and thanked God that he cares for us and is always with us. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/FA62B115-21F8-4DA9-867B-8A9C96A74D54.jpeg) [Reception](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [Religious Education](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/religious-education) [Year of Prayer](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-of-prayer) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-E56A27DB-A290-426E-9FFE-DB55CB3DC9FC.png)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-04-year-3-40-days-of-kindness-day-1) Previous ### [Year 3- 40 Days of Kindness – Day 1](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-04-year-3-40-days-of-kindness-day-1) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_8804.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-06-online-safety-using-technology-to-boost-reading-skills) Next ### [Online Safety: Using Technology to Boost Reading Skills](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-03-06-online-safety-using-technology-to-boost-reading-skills) ### 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/)
