Children's workshop where young warriors train to become Viking protectors of the island of Berk.
How to Train Your Dragon School: Warrior School is coming to St Saviour's Church on Wednesday 22 July, a children's workshop built around the world of How to Train Your Dragon. It's a one-day session, so it's something to keep the kids occupied for a full day rather than a quick stop-in.
The whole thing is set up as a training camp for young warriors. The idea is that the children spend the day training to become Viking protectors of the island of Berk, the home of the dragons and riders from the films. It's a workshop, so they'll be doing things rather than just watching, and the activities are all themed around that Viking warrior life — training, learning the ropes, and working their way up to protecting the island.
If your kids are into the films, they'll recognise the setting. Berk is the village where Hiccup and Toothless first teamed up, and that's the world they'll be stepping into for the day. It's a children's workshop, so it's aimed at the younger crowd, and it's all held at St Saviour's Church here in York. The date is Wednesday 22 July, so it's a midweek one in the middle of the summer holidays — a good shout if you're looking for something to fill a day when the schools are out.
Every week we pick 🏆 the 5 best 🏆 things to do in York and send them to your inbox. Just one weekly email, no spam.

It's a one-off session, not a course, so it's a single day of training rather than something that runs over a few weeks. If you've got kids who'd fancy spending a day as a Viking warrior in training, that's the one to keep an eye on.
