Year two pupils, who have been studying the history of medieval Norwich, had a fun filled day of activities that brought the period to life. on Monday, October 16.
The children took part in typical medieval activities, including jousting, jestering, feasting, and banqueting.
They also experienced the fun of archery, in a session which was run by Goldcrest Outdoor Activity.
Lots of the children managed to hit the archery targets, and enjoyed learning the new skill.
