On Wednesday, November 27 Year 5 and 6 pupils took part in a Spelling Bee hosted by Mrs Andrade and Mrs Baisch.
Challenged with spellings such as synonymous, counterfeit, and accommodation, it was an extremely close competition with many tense rounds.
Winner of the Spelling Bee, Moyo in Year 6, triumphed with her correct spelling of the word ‘conscience’.
Commenting on her success, Moyo said: “I really enjoyed taking part in the Spelling Bee and was really surprised to win.
“It was challenging as there were some words I’d never heard of, but it was fun to guess the spellings of these words and apply what I knew about other spellings to my answers.”
“It was great to take part in the competition with my friends.”
