Every year at Northwood School we have Field Day in June. This year
the Field Day teams have been getting together once a month.
In
November we made special cards to send to the military children.
We
collected many different items for the Hero Packs Project through
Operation Military Kids.
In
February we had a winter carnival and teams competed in 4 different
games. We held a canned food drive to try to collect at least 100
cans to help the Northwood Food Pantry for the 100th day of school.
In
March we had reading activities to celebrate Read Across America.
Our teams read together.
We
look forward to the culmination of our year in June at Field Day!
Book Discussion
Northwood and Nottingham residents are invited to participate in a

will be held during a southern-style potluck dinner. The dinner/book
discussion will be held at the Masonic Hall in Northwood on
Saturday, March 27, at 6:00 p.m.

Library in Northwood and at the Blaisdell Memorial Library in

The
Big Read is an initiative of the National Endowment for the Arts
(NEA) that gives communities the opportunity to come together and
read, discuss and celebrate one of 30 selections from U.S. and world
literature. In New Hampshire, the program is organized by the Center
for the Book at the New Hampshire State Library, which received a
grant to coordinate the statewide effort. The Center for the Book
chose to focus on “To Kill a Mockingbird” because of its relevant
themes of standing up for what is right, relationships between the
races, courage, justice and more.
