Ahhh! Viking Invasion!

Don't panic, but the Vikings have invaded Years 5 and 6 at Robert Browning!

As part of their Creative Curriculum topic 'The Seven Seas,' Years 5 and 6 have been learning all about the Vikings, from what the climate was like in their homelands, to what they ate whilst sailing the Seas!

Last week, the top floor was turned into a Viking settlement, and our Year 6's had to live a day in the life of the Vikings. All of them had to change their names to new, Scandinavian names, and complete all of their daily work and chores. 


This included:

  • weaving a new roof
  • washing and mending clothes
  • baking bread
  • grinding rye
  • picking crops
  • feeding and cleaning the animals




It was a hard days work, and the Year 6's realized that being a Viking was tougher than they thought! 







Keep checking to stay updated with what is going on in our Viking settlement on the top floor!
