Norwood in the Community
Norwood Primary School is committed to playing an active role in our community whether it be our local community of Norwood ward, the town of Southport, the borough of Sefton, the county of Merseyside, the region of the North West, the country of Great Britain or as part of a diverse world and we aim to form lasting and fulfilling partnerships with members of all of these communities.
Southport Learning Partnership
The Southport Learning Partnership is a cluster of 18 primary schools, 4 secondary schools and 2 special schools, who have come together on a number of projects to gives a wonderful opportunity for the children of Southport to share curriculum experiences as well as working on annual projects to develop our role within the Southport community.
The common purpose underlying the activities of the partnership is to increase the capacity of each of the schools to raise standards, improve behaviour and attendance, promote community cohesion, personalise provision for all children and young people and enhance the delivery of the Curriculum.

Love Our Community Day
Every year at Norwood we hold a Love Our Community Day.
On this day we give to others that are in need and aim to put a smile on their faces. Early Years and KS1 children bring in bunches of flowers in, which are delivered to local care homes by our Year 6 captains. While our KS2 children bring in tinned foods which are donated to Southport Food Bank.
