We have a proud history of achievement, sporting success and community involvement. We have a strong focus on Literacy and Mathematics, as well as providing many opportunities for our children to participate in sporting and cultural activities.
Norsewood and Districts is a rural, co-educational, full primary school with students drawn from the catchment area of Te Uri, Ormondville, Whetukura, Makotuku, Matamau and Norsewood districts. We are situated approximately 20 kilometres North of Dannevirke in a dairy, beef and sheep farming area.
Norsewood School was established in 1873 and became a merged school in 2004. The school has a proud Scandinavian heritage and participates in Norway Constitution Day celebrations each year.

I hope you are all enjoying the time your children and we can't wait to see them next week. It was in the last newsletter, but I wanted to remind parents that Friday August 2nd is a Teacher Only Day. This is so staff can work with the Ministry on our Positive Behaviour 4 Learning (PB4L) programme.
Notices will go out on Monday for Whanau Meetings in week two.
Enjoy the rest of your week.

Good morning and happy last week of school!
Please find attached our school holiday sessions.
The last school holidays were a hit, and it has been fantastic to be able to offer movies to our local community.
Kind regards and thanks for your support.
