The children selected the colours and tools they needed to make their own skeleton using language that we have been learning throughout the week. The children concentrated on the small features of their skeleton and showed great control with their fine motor movements. Some children created themselves and others created an animal. ![](https://darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy.schudio.com/images/news/Collage_2025-10-17_10_19_43.jpg) [Reception](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/tag/reception) [Early Years Foundation Stage](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/tag/early-years-foundation-stage) [Computing](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/tag/computing) [![](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/imagecache/100x100c/news/Collage_2025-10-15_14_54_23.jpg)](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2025-10-16-year-6-history-writing-a-viking-saga) Previous ### [Year 6: History: Writing a Viking Saga](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2025-10-16-year-6-history-writing-a-viking-saga) [![](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/imagecache/100x100c/news/5711ca08-1502-453a-9d47-6c12150b1793.jpeg)](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2025-10-20-reception-art-and-design-printing) Next ### [Reception – Art and Design: Printing](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2025-10-20-reception-art-and-design-printing) ### Academy Life - [News](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/events) - [Clubs](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/basc) - [School Council](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Charities and Fundrasing](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/charities-and-fundraising) - ![School Games Gold](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/Gold_Logo_25-26(1).png) - ![Healthy school](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/healthy_school.png) - ![Picture News](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/6_Years_of_Picture_News.png) - ![AP smilestar](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/Screenshot_2026-07-27_10.26.27.png) ##### Location St James Crescent Darwen Lancashire BB3 0EY ##### Contact Us 01254 703260 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/Darwenstjames) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/darwenstjames/) © Copyright 2021–2026 Darwen St James’ C of E Primary Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
