Shoscombe and St Julian's Schools have been learning about the The Vikings - the fierce invaders from Scandenavian countries such as Denmark and Norway who came to our shores and settled, gradually conquering most of England between about 800 to 1066. In 1016 King Cnut of Denmark was King of England also.                                                                                                                                                                                                                             At Shoscombe we had a Viking day lead by this impressive invader! Look out for some of our work we will add to this page shortly!              

Pupils at St Julian's have also been engaged in some very hands on learning about the vikings.  They have made some fabulous Viking boats out of a wide range of materials.    

  

                    

 

 

                             

   

 

          Children are very busily engaged in lots of research about the vikings and they will present this to each other in a range of ways such as powerpoints, through posters, music and acting. They are also planning a Viking style cooking session and feast shortly- look out for photos of this event.
