Hagar the Viking Visits to P3/4
Today P3/4 were visited by Hagar the Viking for a Viking Workshop. This session was funded by our parent council (A huge thank you from us all).
We learnt about Viking clothing, food and their gods. We dressed up as Viking and played a Viking game called Molkky. We re-enacted Viking marriages, wearing horned helmets which were only used for important ceremonies. We also re-enacted Viking battles as vikings were also know as raiders and pirates.
Following our session we were presented with a Young Viking Historian Award Certificate.

Author Visit
Primary 1/2 and Primary 3/4 were fortunate to have a visit from the author Chae Strathie. He is well know for writing: Gorilla Love Vanilla, Dear Dinosaur, Jumblebum and many more.
He read us both Dear Dinosaur and Gorilla Loves Vanilla. We created our own dinosaur made out of food and a Ice Cream Sundae made of many unusual ingredients. Chae also sang a song about wiggly worms.
Everyone had a great time!
