Owl Class Shine in English Heritage Pin Badge Competition

This October at St. Mary’s Catholic Primary School in Barnard Castle, our Year 5 and 6 pupils - known as Owl Class - took part in an exciting creative challenge set by English Heritage. Pupils were invited to design a brand‑new pin badge for Barnard Castle, inspired by their understanding of the historic site and its significance within our local area.
