Year 3 become Vikings for the day
Year 3 had an exciting day at Ufton Court for their Viking Adventure Day. The boys explored Viking battle tactics and strategies, such as forming a shield wall to protect the ‘Yarl’. They also had the opportunity to board a Viking longship, where they enthusiastically chanted battle cries to the rhythm of a deep drum beat. The boys embarked on raids across European lands, gathering treasures and artefacts, which they later studied in detail. After a well-earned lunch and some relaxation, the boys applied their newly learned skills in a thrilling battle between Vikings and Anglo-Saxons.
It was a fun-filled day that gave the pupils a deeper understanding of Viking life.
