How much could a longship hold?

16th Oct 2025

P5 had great fun working out how many Vikings could fit on a longship.  They knew that each Viking needed space to row and move their oars.  They worked out that a longship could hold 3 times as many their class, 22. So roughly 66. Great strategies used to work this out.And then a little bit of fun seeing what it would be like to ‘row’ like a Viking!
