We consider conditioned Galton-Watson trees and show asymptotic normality of additive functionals that are defined by toll functions that are not too large. This includes, as a special case, asymptotic normality of the number of fringe subtrees isomorphic to any given tree, and joint asymptotic normality for several such subtree counts. Another example is the number of protected nodes. The offspring distribution defining the random tree is assumed to have expectation 1 and finite variance; no further moment condition is assumed.
