Year 3 and 4 - Viking Experience

28th June 2019
Years 3 and 4 

 

will be taking part in a

 

Viking Interactive Experience

 

Friday, 28th June

 

Ulf Trygveson from Portals to the Past, will be visiting us and providing the children with an exciting insight into Viking life and times, home-life, navigation, gods, having fun and battles. 

 

Ulf has been raiding schools for 14 years and will really make this fascinating period of history come to life for the children.  He will bring in a large collection of reproduction artefacts and in the afternoon, there will be a weapons, armour display, and Viking spear wrestling.  The day will finish with a Viking battle – who will be the victors?

 

To get into the spirit of our Viking experience it would be brilliant if the children could make a Viking costume to wear on the day.  

 

Thank you to the Friends of Orchard Vale for helping to subsidise this event.

 

We are sure the children will come home after their experience with a much better appreciation of what it was like to live in Viking times.
