Autumn Term - Invasion

How did Britain change after the Romans withdrew in AD 410?

This project teaches children about life in Britain after the Roman withdrawal. Children will learn about Anglo-Saxon and Vikings up to the Norman conquest.

This term we will also be completing subject specific projects on the digestive system, sound, food, art and geography.

There’s a Viking in our school!

Today we were visited by Thorgunna Eriksdottir, a real Viking! She talked to us about the Vikings, their everyday life and battle techniques. We made a shield wall, dissected Viking poo to see what the Vikings ate, tried out Viking and Anglo Saxon helmets, swords and axes and acted out a story about Thor and Loki! We’ve learned so much about the Vikings and had lots of fun at the same time!
