Vikings invade Copsegrove!

Class 3 had a fantastic day at Copsegrove farm last week. After a long walk to the farm we gathered round the campfire to be given our first task which was a trail in the woods and time to explore. The children had to find the names of places the Vikings came from and went to.

After the trail we had a look at the types of items the Vikings would have traded such as honey and animal furs for wine and silks.

Next we were given 3 tasks to complete, Viking cooking over the wood fire, longhouse building in the woods and solving rune riddles.

After a fantastic day, we walked back to Bisley to meet our parents, not before saying “Hello” to Elvis the Bull.
