Meet the Vikings


 
We have had a few visitors to our class recently, some of them quite friendly and ready to settle down here in Orkney. Many of them have been on long voyages and have raided monasteries.
They had some beautiful possessions with them - impressive weapons and beautiful jewellery.

  1. Hello class 5. I am not going to kill or raid you I'm going to be a farmer it's brilliant farmland great for growing crops. I'm going to dock my long ship and build a long house there are no mountains which means no troll's. I came from Sweden it was nice there but there where too many forests so I sailed of and the wind blew me too Orkney I'm glad it did and I'm going to stay here. Hunding The Unsteady

  2. Hello class 5. I visited for a reason to set up a base and farm. The farmland is fantastic here back in Sweden it's like a giant forest. I am going to dock the boat and stay in Orkney. I have a question for all of you why do you have are stuff you've got are combs, pins, jewellery everything. Neri the Elder

  3. Hello class 5 I have remembered all of you especially that boy that showed me something like whale blubber. Its very cold in Norway its almost winter too that will mean it'll be freezing. It was very very colourful in your classroom and I've never seen so many colours. Vika the terror of muddidale.

  9. Hi class 5. It was nice being in Orkney but I still like Sweden better. All the clothes are very different from our clothes. It was quite windy so it blew my ship over a little bit. It was a very nice place and I would love to come back and raid. From Kara The Elder

  12. Hi Class 5. I enjoyed my visit, I think I might settle and use your land as a base for fighting. There is good farmland here and there is plenty of meat and fish. Bild the Spearmaster.

  16. Hi P5M, I loved my visit to your odd classroom, as you call it. I sailed across the seas to Orkney with all the men and while the men raided I stayed in the boat and kept it ashore. The men came back with lots of treasure. My children are very clever for their age and would love to have met you. Hope to see you again, you very odd people, Sigrid the Terrible.

  19. Hi Class 5, I bet you were scared when we came. We came because its not that cold here in Orkney. We followed other Vikings and thought it was not too bad. We will go back to Norway because we thought it could be a base but people are already there. Hak the Berserker.

  22. Hi class5.
    I loved dressing up as Vikings and I loved the topic to.
    It's so sad that we are going to stop the topic and I hope we do something like this in the future.
