Everyone welcome! # Reception- Year of Prayer- Playdough ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/BF116E7A-BF82-4EFC-8D00-8891CF5068C8.jpeg) 11 June 2025 Today as part of our Year of Prayer we thought about situations where people are fighting with each other and countries that are involved in conflict. We made two different colours of playdough to represent two countries and we took a piece of each colour and blended them together to make a new colour. Whilst doing this we prayed to God to bring peace to the situations we had been thinking about to help the two sides come together. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/BF116E7A-BF82-4EFC-8D00-8891CF5068C8.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-B66C2415-1191-48E7-97B5-D59135265B93_(1).png)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-06-11-year-3-year-of-prayer-i-spy-a-lesson-in-perseverance) Previous ### [Year 3- Year of Prayer- I Spy-A Lesson in Perseverance](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-06-11-year-3-year-of-prayer-i-spy-a-lesson-in-perseverance) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/77745349-CEBB-4E54-A531-3F94D23F05DD.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-06-11-year-6-cricket-competition) Next ### [Year 6 - Cricket Competition](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-06-11-year-6-cricket-competition) ### 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/)
