On Friday, Year 4 visited Jarrow Hall as part of their Invasion topic. It was the most amazing rich experience, involving a visit to an Anglo-Saxon farm and a replica Anglo-Saxon village.

Children learnt all about which animals the Anglo-Saxons would have kept and why. After this, children then sat in an Anglo-Saxon hall and listened to the story of Beowulf, told round a campfire. In the afternoon, children completed workshops linked to Anglo-Saxon life.
