Year 5/6 Viking Day

On 11th February Mrs Tranter very kindly brought into school a selection of Viking weapons, clothes, jewellery and utensils.  The children were amazed at how detailed a lot of the items were, and they were very surprised by the weight of the chainmail armour.  The children spent an enjoyable afternoon trying things on and listening to Mrs Tranter explain how the various items were made and how they reflected the history of the Vikings.
