Viking Shields:
Here are photographs of the children with their finished Viking shields, swords and helmets. Don't they look well!

Prior to the designing and creating of Viking Swords the children were given an opportunity to see and examine a sword from the 1800s. 

                  
Religion:
Together we created our own Advent Wreath which we used as a beautiful focal point during our religious services in preparation for Christmas.
