🛡️We were delighted to welcome Seán from ‘Holding History’ today, as we finish off our P5/6 World Around Us topic, on ‘The Vikings.’
It was a very engaging, hands-on workshop, which brought the past right into our classroom! We got to hold artefacts such as weapons and jewellery, some of which were over 1000 years old and discovered in Co. Antrim. ⛏️
The children learnt about the customs and beliefs of the Vikings, along with some fighting tips on how to use their axes and shields, even creating a shield wall! They were able to consolidate their prior knowledge with many interesting facts on these highly-skilled tradespeople.
Go raibh maith agat Seán for delivering this fascinating workshop!🪓
