Lower Two took part in a workshop on the Vikings provided by the company ‘Portals to the Past’. The class looked spectacular in their Viking outfits. The children learnt about where the Vikings came from, how they first arrived as raiders in Britain but later became settlers. They learnt about the Viking Gods, and their homelife. The man conducting the workshop was both knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The children looked at a wide variety of artefacts and participated in a range of activities including Viking games and axe and spear throwing (not real ones). All of Lower 2 thoroughly enjoyed their day.
