Today we have kick started our new History topic 'Vikings Vs Anglo Saxons' with a visit from a Viking called Bjorn. We all had lots of fun and cannot wait to continue our learning all about Vikings.

Our first task was to complete a Viking quiz, while doing the quiz we found out lots about daily life, Viking battles, archaeology, Gods and their alphabet.

Next we played a Viking game of skill and tactics called hnefatafl. Some of us got quite competitive!

We also had the opportunity to see and handle real Viking artefacts as well as find out more about the daily life of Vikings.

This afternoon we got wrapped up warm and went outside to complete our geography fieldwork. We used maps of the school grounds and Ordnance Survey Maps to solve questions using grid references, calculating distance and map symbols. We had lots of fun and learnt lots too!
