The army makes shields in preparation for battle…

The Anglo-Saxons formed a shield wall to protect themselves from the Norman’s arrows…

Sadly, the Anglo-Saxons were defeated…
Celebrations were held and the people danced for Queen Matilda…

What a great day we had!

Years 5 and 6 re-enacted the Battle of Hastings as part of our Medieval history day…

King Harold was killed during the battle!

Marvellous medieval and modern moments. FSU enjoy their castles and banqueting day.

We have had an amazing day in Key Stage 1 learning about the Medieval times. We have learned about the Battle of Hastings, created our own Bayeaux Tapestry, learned about King William the I and the impact he had on English society and even learned & performed a medieval dance. The children all looked amazing in their costumes.
