To end our learning quest on the Vikings, we had a Viking workshop which was a blast! Peter the Merciless taught us a lot of interesting things that we didn't know about and we had the opportunity to try on real Viking clothing, investigate Viking artefacts, and play with Viking toys. We were also taught how to spin wool and write our names using feather quill pens, which was how Vikings used to write. One of the most unforgettable moments was when I was able to strike my own silver coin in exactly the same method that the Vikings used, which we then took home to show our parents!
