Spelling Bee
Our Year 6 children have taken part in a whole school spelling bee. The children were given the year 5 and 6 words to learn over the Christmas holidays. In each class, there was a competition to find a class champion. Each of these class champions then competed in assembly to find an overall winner for year 6. This year 6 champion will go on to compete against the year 6 champions from other schools.
