Elementary School Gives Honorable Viking Funerals For Class Goldfish

These warrior goldfish were too good for the goldfish bowl – so their child guardians gave them a proper sendoff in style.

The kids of Papdale Primary School in Orkney, Scotland were learning about Vikings in school when their beloved class pets Bubbles and Freddy passed away.

So in honor of their deaths, the grade 3 and 4 classes gave them Viking funerals with little cardboard boats. Apparently, the ship made out of an egg carton floated the best.

“We knew that the Vikings would only have sent the most beautiful ships to be burned for important people in their communities,” says the school. “While we will miss Freddy and Bubbles, we certainly enjoyed giving them a good send off to Valhalla.”
