On Tuesday Primary 3 went on a trip to Vikingar. We have been learning all about Vikings in our new topic. it was a very exciting trip as we got to take part in lots of activities and learn more about how Vikings lived their lives.

First a man dressed up as Viking took us into a Long house. He showed us Viking beds. They were very small and not as comfy as our beds! Vikings used wool underneath them to make their beds soft.

Then he showed us how Vikings cooked their food. They ate porridge, sea food and meat. We also got to hold cups the Vikings made from horns to drink in. this was very exciting as we learnt about this in class but it was the first time we got to hold one. We also tried on helmets which Vikings wore to protect themselves with.

Next we went to see the different gods. Odin the most powerful God came to speak to us. This gave us all fright but we all enjoyed it. We also played a game the Viking children played with shields and bean bags.

Finally we had lunch and went to visit the hall of knowledge. This area had lots of amazing facts about Vikings.

Primary 3 had an amazing trip and engaged really well. We all enjoyed our time at Vikingar. Here are some pictures of us taking part in activities.
