The girls from Barrow URC Primary School took part in the Girls’ Biggest Ever Football Session!
Lots of fun, great teamwork and some fantastic football skills on show. We are very proud of all the girls! 
A big thank you to Miss Hollingworth for organising and leading the session. 
A group of year 4 children attended glow dodgeball at Oakhill with Miss Fallon. What an amazing morning they had, showing the Barrow way throughout. Encouraging each other and respectful to other teams.
Year 1 had a fantastic visit to Clitheroe Mosque! The children learnt lots about how Muslims prepare for prayer by washing and cleaning in a special room, discovered which direction Muslims face when praying towards Mecca and found out about the five daily prayers. They were also excited to share their knowledge of the Mihrab, something they had already been learning about in class. A big thank you to everyone at Clitheroe Mosque for making us feel so welcome.
At Barrow URC Primary School, we believe it is really important to continually upskill our staff so we can provide the very best learning experiences for our children.
Recently, we have been accessing training through The Local School Nature Grants Programme, helping us to develop our knowledge and confidence in gardening with children 
. It has been a fantastic opportunity to learn new skills and ideas for outdoor learning.
We can’t wait to bring what we’ve learned back into school and share these exciting experiences with our children as we continue to grow our love of nature together! 
A huge thank you to Prima Dance and Theatre School for coming into school to help us celebrate World Book Day! 
They led fantastic drama workshops with all of our children and the feedback from staff and pupils has been wonderful. The children had such a great time bringing stories to life through drama and performance. 
Each class explored a different story:
EYFS & KS1 – We’re Going on a Bear Hunt
LKS2 – Alice in Wonderland
UKS2 – Harry Potter
Thank you for helping make World Book Day such a memorable experience for our pupils! 
We had a fantastic World Book Day at Barrow URC Primary!
The children loved meeting author Andy Edwardson and getting their books signed. A wonderful day celebrating our love of reading!
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came along and supported our Spring Café! 
The atmosphere was wonderful, and we are absolutely delighted to share that we made a staggering £552! 
This fantastic amount will go towards building a brand new outdoor classroom for the children at Barrow 
— such an exciting project that will benefit all of our pupils!
A massive thank you to all the amazing Year 4 children who worked so incredibly hard throughout the event 
Whether they were:
Making drinks
Selling cakes
Collecting tickets (and children!)
Or being part of the brilliant cleaning team
You were all superstars and represented our school beautifully! 
We are so proud of you all — and so grateful to our wonderful community for your continued support. 
A huge congratulations to the 9 dancers from Year 1 and Year 2 who attended the ‘Come and Try – Dance Festival’
Your energy, enthusiasm and fab dancing were amazing to see! 
We are so proud of you all — you truly shone on the dance floor!
For a brand new team, you have done yourselves proud! Winning 2, drawing 1 and narrowly losing 4 is a fantastic achievement for your first run together
Your teamwork has been brilliant to watch, and the improvement each game has been incredible. The support you show one another and your determination on court make us so proud!
Keep going, girls — this is just the beginning! 
Year 3 had a great time at the Hindu Temple in Preston; learning more about the different Gods, taking part in a meditation session and singing with drums. The children showed ‘The Barrow Way’ brilliantly with some excellent listening and thoughtful questions.
What a lovely day! Today our House Captains, Head Boy and Head Girl went over to Middleshaw Hills Residential Home to enjoy a special Valentine’s lunch with the residents 
The children shared the beautiful cards they had made and spent time chatting and getting to know everyone 
It was such a special moment seeing different generations come together and spread a little kindness and happiness. We are so proud of them all
As part of Children's Mental Health Week, Oak class enjoyed a lovely Wellbeing pamper afternoon. They visited the nail and hair salon, had tattoos and hot chocolates, relaxed to mindful music with cucumbers on their eyes (then ate them!!!) and enjoyed a relaxing foot spa. Mrs Tate and Miss Parkinson certainly needed a rest too afterwards!
Thank you to our 2 FOBS helpers for your time and support in providing this exciting session for our children.
