Everyone welcome! # Year 3 - Live Author Session ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_3444(1).jpeg) 23 September 2026 On Tuesday, Year 3 class took part in a live author session on Zoom provided by Picture News. We heard from a number of authors including Jon Lock and Nich Angell, co-creators of the Tiny Hercules book series, and Dadbot author Jack Noel. During the live session, the children had the opportunity to ask questions and take part in challenges, but their favourite part was drawing Tiny Hercules and then creating their own character. ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_3444(1).jpeg) [Year 3](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [English](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/english) [Enrichment](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/enrichment) [National Year of Reading](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/national-year-of-reading) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_4319(1).jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-22-ks2-football-training) Previous ### [KS2 Football Training](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-22-ks2-football-training) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/046A8F45-1530-4168-8161-F6959BA487CC.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-24-year-1-pe-gymnastics) Next ### [Year 1 PE: Gymnastics ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-24-year-1-pe-gymnastics) ### 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/)
