Year 4 have made an excellent start to their new topic, Traders and Raiders! We began the topic by building Saxon ships long enough and strong enough to carry the whole team across the North Sea! We planned out our boats and decided on different ways to strengthen the structure using sellotape and extra cardboard. We have also been plotting Saxon history on vertical timelines whilst learning about famous Saxon historians such as St. Bede. 

We have also been busy in English writing some historical reports from the point of view of an onlooker at Brancaster Beach as the Saxon ships descended on to their shores!
