Anglo-Saxons
We will develop our chronological narrative through the study of Britain’s settlement by the Anglo-Saxons and their struggle with the Vikings for the Kingdom of England to the time of Edward the Confessor. We study how the invasion of England and the subsequent displacement of people during this period of history has shaped our country and its culture.
