Please see our admissions page for further details. Everyone welcome! # Year 3 - Give Like Dolly Day & National Poetry Day ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_3521.jpeg) 1 October 2026 We’ve had some fabulous outfits in Year 3 for Give Like Dolly Day, and the children have thoroughly enjoyed some story time with Mrs Hegarty. We also chose some class mystery readers to read some funny poems for National Poetry Day. They did a brilliant job of reading aloud and understanding the pattern, and we all had a little giggle about Little Miss Muffet eating a spider. We can't wait for our next mystery reader later this week! ![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_3521.jpeg) [Year 3](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-3) [English](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/english) [Fundraising](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/fundraising) [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_3502.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-30-year-3-science-clean-coins-and-conclusions) Previous ### [Year 3 - Science: Clean Coins and Conclusions](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-09-30-year-3-science-clean-coins-and-conclusions) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_4564(1).jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-10-02-friday-celebration-worship) Next ### [Friday Celebration Worship ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-10-02-friday-celebration-worship) ### 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/)
