🐝 Regional Spelling Bee 🐝
A super effort from Jack and Ewan who both competed in the Regional Spelling Bee today.
Held via Zoom, both boys were in a final of 30 students from schools of varying sizes.
Our Jack was one of the last four students in the junior final. After successfully spelling ~ fair ~ watermelon ~ horizontal and temperature, it was the word ‘granule’ that tricked him up. As is often the case, he could easily have spelt the words in the ensuing rounds … in true Jack form he noted ‘the bee involves both skill and luck’. Great work, Jack!
The senior final also involved 30 students. Competing in his final primary school Spelling Bee, Ewan was determined to do his best …. And that’s exactly what he did. Calm and focused the whole time, Ewan’s word journey was an interesting one

A huge congratulations to Ewan on winning his final 👏 👏 👏
Ewan will now compete in the State final at Penrith’s Q Theatre in November.
What a superstar ⭐️
