Tesco Presentation Vouchers for Schools
On Friday the 22nd of October Mr. Postlethwaite took Darcy and Samantha (Both Year 6) to Tesco at Kew for a presentation from Southport MP John Pugh as a thank you
from Tesco for participating in their Schools and Clubs voucher scheme.
Upon arrival we were treated like VIPs and taken to a room, in the staff only area of
the store! Refreshments for adults and children were provided, while we waited for John Pugh to arrive. Three other schools were also invited; Farnborough, Kew Woods and Churchtown. Once John Pugh arrived each school was presented with a box of
goodies, which included art material, PE equipment and ICT equipment.
After the presentation all the children were taken on a short tour of the store. First we went to look and see what happens in the bakery; we had to wear hats for
hygiene reasons. After that, we went to the room where they controlled the security cameras, some of the children managed to spot their teacher’s cars!
Before returning to school all the children were given a goody bag by Tesco, which contained amongst other things a pen, pencil, rubber, notepad an apple and a bottle
of water.

On Tuesday 12th October 12 girls from years 5 and 6 played a football tournament at Stanley
High School. The first school which Norwood played against was Churchtown and Norwood
beat them 2-0. The first goal was scored by Abi
Wright and the second by Errin Telford. The second game Norwood played was against St Lukes when the whole team had to work a little
bit harder to win the game but we still won and the score was 2-1. Abbie Wilson scored the first
goal and Ashleigh Thomas scored an amazing free kick.
After playing against St Lukes, all of the Norwood players went to get their photo taken with the Everton ladies player, Toni Duggan and the FA
Cup, which Everton Ladies won last year. It was a really cool experience.
After a short break Norwood played a match
against Our Lady Of Compassion and Norwood won 1-0. Anya Day scored a fantastic goal in the
corner of the net.

It was a very exciting match between Kew Woods and Norwood. First George Southern went on a few runs but his shots went wide or were saved by the goalkeeper. then just before the end of the first period, George kicked the ball with his
left foot and slotted it into the bottom corner. In the second period Darcy Iveson-Berkeley and Tom Lawson held the back line well, while Harry O'Driscoll and Joe Rimmer had some amazing shots with Harry hitting the bar. Norwood were hot
and eventually got their reward with a brilliant pass from Brandon Robson to Jake Hawkings to blast it home to make it 2-0. Despite this Kew Woods pulled a goal back but Norwood held on and scored again with Tom Lawson taking on some players before scoring. In the last five minutes Kew Woods had a simple tap in to make the final score 3-2 to Norwood.

Just before the half term break, Year 4 visited Tatton Old Hall and enjoyed a step back in time to Tudor England. Dressed for the occasion, the children took part in some traditional Tudor activities. Here are some of the comments they made.
I liked the archery. It was fun aiming at the dragon because it was worth ten points. Shafayeth Uddin
We learned how to get the knots out of sheep’s wool and then turn it into scarves and bracelets. Olivia Shaw
On our trip to Tatton we did weaving, archery, jousting and watched a play about Sir Richard. Oliver Green
I thought the trip was great. If I had to pick two things, it would be the play and archery. Maddie Hayes
I really enjoyed using a flail to beat the seeds and the corn and then grinding them with two stones to get flour. Natasha Polansky
The best thing about Tatton, in my opinion, was the carding. This is when a piece of sheep’s wool is placed between two special metal brushes and brushed.
Lucy Fraser
I liked archery best, it was brilliant but weaving was not for me. In parts it was quite scary but great fun. Lewis Peacock

Bake Day
On Thursday 21st October we entered into the sprit of National Bake and Share day. The whole school baked during the
day, reception made chocolate crispy cakes, year 1 made fairy cakes, year 2 made biscuits, year 3 made flap jacks, year 4 made amazing muffins, year 5 made scones and year 6 made fresh cream sandwich cakes. The children all enjoy taking part and we couldn’t believe that after 10 minutes every year group had sold out WOW! which was brilliant. Our grand
total was £163.00 which we are donating to Children In Need! Thank you thank you very much to all our parents for helping make the day successful and for your continuing support.
