• Head Boy and Head Girl elections 2016

  Tue 25 Oct 2016 Mr. Simpson

  Last Thursday, a new experience was brought to Norman Pannell, as for the first time, the school held an election for the important positions of Head Boy and Head Girl.  We also voted in a Deputy Head Boy and Girl.

   

  Children from Y6 gave speeches on Wednesday afternoon, and on Thursday voting slips were taken around every child and all of the staff to choose one boy and one girl.  This was a great example of DEMOCRACY at work!

   

  Just before breaking up for half term, we gathered in the hall and the atmosphere was electric as the results of the vote were announced by Mrs. McMaster.

   

  Our new Head Boy and Head Girl will represent the school in lots of ways, not least welcoming the Lord Mayor of Liverpool to Norman Pannell in a couple of weeks.

• Slow Down for Bobby - Author Visit

  Wed 19 Oct 2016 Miss Gold

  Yesterday, author Jude Lennon came to visit Norman Pannell...

   

  When Liverpool schoolboy, Bobby Colleran, age 6, was involved in a tragic accident outside his school in 2014, his parents asked author Jude Lennon to write a book to raise awareness about school road safety. Jude wrote a book called "Superbob" which includes all the things that Bobby loved: superheroes, cowboy hats and his green bike! Jude even managed to write Bobby's favourite saying, "I'm fuming!" in the book!

   

  A copy of this book has been left in school for all children to access and learn about road safety; not just for children but also for adults. This is why, near schools, the speed limit is now 20 mph.

   

  Together we can make a difference and our school roads will be safe!

• Harvest Thanksgiving

  Tue 18 Oct 2016 Mrs McMaster

  Pupils, parents and staff enjoyed a harvest celebration last Friday at Christ Church. A great deal of hard work went into the children's poems, prayers and wonderful singing and they reflected on what what they were thankful for.

  A big thank you to all who kindly donated food for the Liverpool Cathedral Food bank. 

  

• Run for Fun at Wavertree

  Tue 11 Oct 2016 Mr. Simpson

  This afternoon, the children from Y2 to Y6 all went to Wavertree Athletics stadium to take part in a huge fun run.  The event was simply to promote healthy, active lifestyles, and to remind children how much fun it is to keep active!

   

  The children and staff had a brilliant time, click on the link below to see all the photos on the P.E. curriculum page:
