A Field Trip Back in Time to the Middle Ages

As a culminating activity for our Quest year, the Navigators and the Dragons took our Magic School Bus back in time to the Middle Ages.

What a great way to end our year and to add to our knowledge and understanding of how people lived in rural England in 1376. 

Welcome to the Camlann Medieval Village.

We got to peer inside of a daub and wattle house.

Touching the 6 inch thick daub
One boy asked, "Can arrows go through it?" 

Meeting the resident shaggy sheep

Some buildings just have wattle sides.

The blacksmith shop

Ye Bors Hede Inne

Frescoes covered the walls.

We were served a ploughman's meal on a bread trencher.


Bread, roast polish sausage, cheese, vegetable, fruit, and a spiced drink 












Our friend, Robin Hood, was even there to greet us. :)

A merry olde time was had by all!
