Kent Life

This week, Year 4 went on a trip to Kent Life to learn more about what life was like in the Anglo Saxon times. They had the opportunity to try and make their own yarn using wool, saw the weapons that would have been made in that time, what they did for entertainment and discussed the importance of animals in that time. The children certainly impressed the activity instructors with their knowledge and thoroughly enjoyed their time learning about different aspects of Anglo Saxon life.
