Everyone welcome! # Year 1 Geography: Exploring Our School Area ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/7FEF0D44-EEFE-46EF-BCF9-677FFE6B8DB8.jpeg) 20 April 2026 In Geography, we recalled what human and physical features are. Human features are things made by humans such as playgrounds. Physical features are natural environments such as wooded areas. We walked around our school ground to find human and physical features. We had lots of human features such as the trim trail, playgrounds, the peace garden, the outdoor gym and the Muga. We had some physical features like the football fields and our growing school orchard. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/7FEF0D44-EEFE-46EF-BCF9-677FFE6B8DB8.jpeg) [Year 1](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Geography](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/geography) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/85AEFDB5-6DD6-4377-9B3F-97F01BF29A71.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-04-17-friday-celebration-worship) Previous ### [Friday Celebration Worship](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-04-17-friday-celebration-worship) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-FC5B3EB2-3618-48E0-8B8A-2AD95EF215FB.png)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-04-21-whole-school-worship-earth-day-2026-our-power-our-planet) Next ### [Whole School Worship- Earth Day 2026: Our Power, Our Planet](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-04-21-whole-school-worship-earth-day-2026-our-power-our-planet) ### 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/)
