 There's no "normal" weight for any age -- and thank the universe for that! Can you imagine being told that a "normal weight" is 50kg if you're 180cm tall?
It depends on your build and your height. A healthy weight is determined by your Body Mass Index (BMI).
You can go to an online BMI calculator here:

On a more general note, don't be too obsessed by your weight in general. Most women have weights that fluctuate a kilo or even two over the month, which is more about retained fluid and menstrual cycling than about fatness.
If you don't have a tummy that jiggles or one that pooches out over the top of your jeans, then you're probably a healthy weight. Learn to love yourself and the way you look, because when you get out of school (and boys start growing up), then men start appreciating a normally-proportioned body.

 Hey - well it all depends on your height and your frame. There's a website that I found that might help you out, although I'd really suggest talking to your doctor and just use the site's info as an informal guide. Anyway, here is the address:

Hope this helps! :)
