Year 9 Extreme History students experienced an exciting and immersive exploration of Viking life during a special visit from presenter James Adams. The session brought their studies to life as students examined Viking weapons and learned about warfare techniques used during the Viking Age.
The highlight of the visit was the hands-on component, where students had the opportunity to handle replicas of Viking weapons and experiment with battle tactics. This practical element allowed them to deepen their understanding of how Vikings approached combat and defence, connecting classroom learning with real-world historical context.
The experience provided valuable insight into Viking culture and complemented their curriculum with an engaging, interactive learning opportunity.
