Year Four Play: The Anglo-Saxons
Year Four will perform a play based on the Anglo - Saxons in Spring Term. The performance will open with how the various migrants from northern Europe first settled in England, before our Fact Readers will explain how society was organised in Anglo-Saxon England. Then the ‘Dudes from the Dark Ages’ rap group, dancers and actors will help to retell the traditional story of Beowulf (which is the whole-class text in our English lessons in the Spring Term). Alfred the Great, soldiers and other characters will make an appearance throughout the show, while some children from both 4A and 4B perfectly perform solo slots in the main songs.
The children always thoroughly enjoy performing to their parents and carers, and learn so much about the Anglo-Saxons too.
