VIKINGS INVADE PRIMARY 2 AT DUNBLANE PRIMARY!


On Monday the 23rd March, real Vikings came to visit Dunblane Primary School. Pupils in Primary 2 were extremely surprised when they saw and heard two Vikings with fi erce faces and carrying a shield and sword, knocking on the windows of their classrooms. Here are some of the pupils’ favourite parts of the day.


“We enjoyed it when we got to see the Vikings using a real bow and arrows.


They made a


loud noise when the arrow hit the shield. ” Cameron, David and Mia.


“We liked it when we saw the Vikings having a fi ght. They used real Viking weapons like swords, shields, helmets and spears.” Sylvie, Eve, Sam


Freddie,


“I enjoyed listening to the Viking stories which were about The Viking Gods” Hazel, Emma, Maisie and Eden


“I enjoyed pretending to be a Viking boy. I had to kill a wild boar. I died and I was buried with my sword, shield, helmet and water horn.” Matthew


“I enjoyed being a Yarl because I had to do things for the king. I got to wear an arctic fox round my neck.” Sophie


Callum, Ellia, Lily and DanielI liked it when Mrs Gallivan had to put out her right hand and chain mail was put over it. Then a Viking chopped the apple on her hand with a very sharp knife. The apple was cut in two but Mrs Gallivan’s hand was protected with the chain mail.


The children enjoyed trying on the Viking helmet and holding the weapons then watching the Viking visitors fi ghting. Some children dressed up as slaves and the Viking king and then saw the wolf character bite Odin’s hand. The children helped to wrap up the wolf in the golden chain but the wolf broke free. Later in the day the classes listened intently as their visitors told them stories of the Viking gods from long ago. This was an exciting and memorable end to their historical learning context “The Vikings.”
