Everyone welcome! # Year 1 History: Off To The Market ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/CE232A81-F1F0-42B5-BA13-AF65DD89AB9E.jpeg) 22 June 2026 Year 1 visited “the market” today and we absolutely loved it. We started off in class by comparing some differences from shopping in the past to modern day. Then, we each wrote shopping lists with 6 items and we had £1 to spend. When we arrived at the market, some of the children became the shopkeepers and some as the shoppers. The shopkeepers had to tell the shoppers how much their items were and count the money and give change. The shoppers could keep their items in brown paper bags. It was lovely to see the children working together, using their imaginations and they have all asked to do it again. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/CE232A81-F1F0-42B5-BA13-AF65DD89AB9E.jpeg) [Year 1](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [History](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/history) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-7AC4BD16-E785-471C-AC2A-90D015CF0495.png)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-19-year-3-drowning-prevention-week-swimming-lesson) Previous ### [Year 3 Drowning Prevention Week Swimming Lesson](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-19-year-3-drowning-prevention-week-swimming-lesson) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-011A4A49-2E39-4979-9EE5-4B336BAD9651.png)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-23-year-3-bringing-the-stone-age-to-life-with-primevr) Next ### [Year 3- Bringing the Stone Age to Life with PrimeVR](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-06-23-year-3-bringing-the-stone-age-to-life-with-primevr) ### 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/)
