This on-site workshop has been altered to become as COVID-safe as possible for your pupils, staff and Royal Armouries staff. However, this does not mean all the fun and engagement has disappeared!
Please contact the Education Team to see what control measures we have put in place and discuss any questions you may have.
Bring the reality of the Viking age to life for your pupils with our outstanding new workshop.
The Vikings have arrived on the coast of Anglo-Saxon England but they are in two minds: should they raid or trade? Your pupils will decide!
The Raider will turn your pupils into ferocious Viking warriors in an interactive session involving shield walls, axe throwing and battle cries.
The Trader will show your pupils the skill and craftsmanship of the Viking people by teaching them how to make their very own pattern-welded sword to take home.
Finally, having made their decision, pupils will get to see a live fight demonstration between a Saxon and Viking warrior!
Fight is subject to staff availability; please enquire upon booking.
