Jarrow Hall
Year 5 had a fantastic time on their recent trip to Jarrow Hall, where they took a step back in time to explore what life was like during the Anglo-Saxon period.
The children had the opportunity to recreate an Anglo-Saxon moot, experiencing how important decisions were made within Anglo-Saxon communities. They explored the different punishments and found out some gruesome information about wergild!
The children also enjoyed exploring the farm, learning more about Anglo-Saxon farming and what everyday life might have looked like during this fascinating period in history.
It was a brilliant opportunity to bring our History learning to life, deepen our understanding of Anglo-Saxon life and experience history beyond the classroom.
