🎊🎉 The clock is ticking... Lots happening in Norsewood this weekend!! Come and celebrate 150 years with us, don't miss out!! ⏰️🎉🎊

We are fast approaching on our 150 year festivities. Over the coming days we will be posting about events and activities going on throughout the weekend. Starting with the Treasures project.

150-year celebrations - collecting stories, artefacts and imagery for future generations to view and enjoy.

Kath and Haraina will be in one of the school classrooms during Labour weekend ready to receive the stories & treasures you have to be archived in the Treasures project.

This project was created to collect what we can of historical interest for Norsewood and Districts. Digital cameras have been sourced so the team can video and photograph items, and people or scan printed stories to be filed for future generations to view. Very similar to the knowledge bank this collection of toanga will be a journey over the coming years from those of us that can provide. This may also coincide with the mini Antiques Roadshow at the barn for you, show an antique to Barbara and if it is directly related to Norsewood get it recorded in the treasures project,

Family heirlooms will be valuable resources for sure. Do you have a treasure that is too large to bring? The coordinators can arrange a visit to take pictures and record the story around it!

Good afternoon all 🌞 It has been brought to our attention that there is a ⚠️fake page⚠️ imitating ours and adding our lovely followers as "friends". Please be clear - this here is our one & ONLY authentic page dedicated to our 150th Celebration. It is run by our small committee of volunteers, working behind the scenes to put on a special day for you all- VERY SOON 🥳 If you have any concerns please email [email protected]

(We could really do with some of Detective Nadine's skills for this case!😅 Room 4 students, 2001)
