The children were so excited to hear the story 'I really really need a wee!' It was such a funny story and the children loved it. We would like to send a big thank you to Theo's mummy for taking the time to share this brilliant book with us!![](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/images/news/IMG_2957(1).jpeg) [Reception](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [English](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/english) [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_5026.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-10-01-give-like-dolly-day-worship) Previous ### [Give Like Dolly Day Worship](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-10-01-give-like-dolly-day-worship) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/IMG_4647.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-10-05-year-1-2-lunchtime-games-club) Next ### [Year 1&2- Lunchtime Games Club ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2026-10-05-year-1-2-lunchtime-games-club) ### 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/) ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/events/Open_Days_2026-27_(3).png)
