Yes, missing periods in your pre-teens or teens is normal.

You only menstruate if you first ovulate, and you only ovulate when your body is physically mature enough to get pregnant - it takes time for your body to mature to the point where it is ovulating regularly, and thus menstruating regularly. It's totally normal for periods to be irregular like this up until adulthood, staying healthy and using herbal treatments like chaste tree can help your menstrual cycles regulate a little quicker.
