Today our Y2 and Y4 children took part in the Easter Experience delivered by Clitheroe URC. The children moved around different stations in the hall learning about and reflecting on the key events of Holy Week. It was a wonderful morning where the events of Easter were brought to life for the children involved. Many thanks to all the members of Clitheroe URC who came into school this morning to deliver the sessions.
This week, our Netball Team worked hard to battle against 5 other teams in a local tournament. Even though we didn't come out on top, we played well as a team and showed amazing perseverance and teamwork when facing some very tough teams.
Eliza from Beech class won silver on Saturday at the Schools ski competition held at Pendle ski slope. What an amazing achievement - well done Eliza
On Thursday 14th March, local author, Faye Evans visited Barrow URC Primary School. She led a super lesson all about her new book Fred - The Fire Breathing Dragon. We listened intently to the story, performed a song and even had a book signing. Her three books will be in the school library for us to all to enjoy.
Today's Ribble Valley Chess Tournament saw local schools showcasing excellent behavior and strategic prowess. Congratulations to Barrow for clinching victory and to Henry for earning the title of Grand Master. Thanks to all participants!
oday some of our Year 6's who made it through to the final of the Johnson Matthey Catalyst challenge WON the overall event. 
They had to complete in 12 x 3 minute challenges ranging from Maths, building a radio tower, tent & bridge. The bridge had to hold as many cans of beans as possible. They then had to make a plastercine boat to hold as many 1 pennies as possible - ours held 73p. We are so proud of the children who represented Barrow today - well done to all of you.
Thank you to Oak Class for a wonderful Mother's Day worship this morning. Sharing the moment with mums, grandmas, aunties, and special guests was heartwarming. Their bright presence at the front, singing and speaking confidently, made it truly special for us all. Thank you all for joining us.
What an unforgettable night at 'Let's Go Sing' at King George's Hall! Our choir shone brightly, showcasing exceptional behaviour and performance. Witnessing them dance and sing together filled us with immense pride.
We were delighted to welcome local Rotarians, Mary and Marie, into our Monday morning assembly this week.
Five children in Barrow were presented with a certificate of achievement and cards from Clitheroe Rotary Club thanking them for their efforts in the Rotary Young Artist Competition.
We also had two winners! Emmie A (Year 5) and Oliver Ho (Year 3) were given gift vouchers for their entries!
A super, creative well done to all!
WOW! What a lot of fun has been had in our KS1 Yoga and Mindfulness club over the last couple of weeks. We have been practicing different mindful breathing techniques, yoga sequences, enjoying mindful colouring together and we even mindfully enjoyed a delicious hot chocolate with marshmallows, thinking about how it looked, smelt, felt and tasted - yum!
Thank you to all our families for the donations of Easter eggs & bags for life that we have given to Ribble Valley Foodbank today. 59 Easter Eggs & 44 bags for life. A massive thank you to Lola for helping me count the donations.
A big thank you to the Faith Explorers for crafting and distributing Lent bracelet kits! Your thoughtful initiative of symbolising acts of kindness with beads is truly inspiring. As each bead represents a gesture of love, we're reminded of the profound impact of small acts. Come Easter, our bracelets will shine with a beautiful mosaic of compassion and generosity. Gratitude for fostering a culture of kindness!
