A viking assembly by 5W



An image that will last, emanated from the Hall on Monday afternoon this week. 5W were the first class of the year to complete a class assembly and those of us who were there learnt all about the Vikings.


Information on the Vikings kept flowing throughout the time we had which was interspersed with acting and singing. The costumes and props belied the fact that school had only been back a few weeks and the PowerPoint that kept order to the proceedings was masterfully created and presented.
The children had clearly enjoyed putting the assembly on. They particularly took to the song, Viking Rock, and some extremely memorable air guitar work was demonstrated. 





As a keen historian I learnt some new facts from the class and was impressed by the way that they could recount the facts, some of which would have taken some learning to understand fully.
Even the prayer, though short, was to the point, thanking God for the joy of learning about past events, something that is great to hear; that learning is a joy.
An excellent job by Mr W and his class which I know was enjoyed by pupils, staff and parents alike.
