Everyone welcome! # Year 3- Geography- Identifying lines of Latitude and Climate Zones ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/activitymore-7495ED6E-0498-4E69-A33C-12ABC5818BB7.png) 4 November 2025 This afternoon, our amazing geographers have been exploring the concept of lines of latitude, the imaginary lines that run horizontally around the Earth. Using these key lines, the children identified different climate zones across the globe, from the tropical heat near the Equator to the icy cold near the poles. We focused on the extreme environments defined by these lines, learning about the Arctic Circle and Antarctica, and explored the fascinating animals that live there, too. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/activitymore-7495ED6E-0498-4E69-A33C-12ABC5818BB7.png) [Year 3](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [Geography](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/geography) [Climate action / Sustainability](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/climate-action-sustainability) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_1416.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-11-03-year-5-science) Previous ### [Year 5 - Science](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-11-03-year-5-science) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-8190ECFC-628B-4D2B-995B-C292B072A306.png)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-11-05-year-3-class-worship-the-courage-to-love-noel-chavasse-s-example) Next ### [Year 3- Class Worship- The Courage to Love: Noel Chavasse's Example](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2025-11-05-year-3-class-worship-the-courage-to-love-noel-chavasse-s-example) ### 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/)
