History at Norton in Hales was given a huge boost when we decided to make use of our outdoor wall space. The giant time line features many world events up to the present day. Our time line also reflects the diversity of a range of cultural backgrounds across the world at different periods of time. We are proud to learn the historical importance of our own school during the second world war, where Norton in Hales hosted 55 evacuee children from Manchester.
