Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # Year 6 - DACA Visit ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_4333.jpeg) 23 September 2026 Today, Year 6 had the exciting opportunity to meet Mr Glover, Principal of DACA, who came to speak to the children about the exciting opportunities that await them as they make the transition from Year 6 to Year 7. He also invited them to the open evening on Wednesday 30th September. Mr Glover shared lots of information about life at DACA, helping the children understand what they can expect when they move to high school. He spoke about the wide range of subjects they will have the opportunity to study, including how their learning will develop and become more specialised as they progress through the school. The children were also able to find out more about the different clubs, activities, trips and opportunities available at DACA, as well as the support they will receive as they settle into Year 7. A huge thank you to Mr Glover for taking the time to speak to our Year 6 children and helping them look ahead to this exciting new chapter in their education! ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_4333.jpeg) [Year 6](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-6) [Visits and Visitors](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/visits-and-visitors) [![](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/IMG_4910.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-23-year-5-french) Next ### [Year 5 - French](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-23-year-5-french) ### 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/)
