Y5F took part in an inter-school spelling competition, through the use of video chat, which was held by the OpenZone.

After an afternoon of spelling challenges on Monday, our team consisted off: Team Captain Khai and teammates Libby, Melissa and Rio.

It was very tough! Each member had to spell 5 words in their own individual rounds. The team round consisted of: choosing which word – out of three choices – was spelt incorrectly; finding the longest word we could out of 9 letters (Mr Forster was proud we found the word ‘Gotham’); and solving anagrams.

We came second in this days heat, and third overall (so far). The class was very proud of their spelling, shown by their support throughout the challenge with banners and cheering for each player.
