Year 7 Foreign Language Spelling Bee competition
During the first term all students have been practising translating and spelling in Spanish up to 50 new words as part of their preparation for the Foreign Language Spelling Bee House Competition. The competition itself took place in their Spanish lessons over the last few weeks. Students had to correctly translate into Spanish and spell as many of the 50 words as possible in a minute.
The students with the highest scores were then selected to take part in the next stage, which is a school competition that will take place during the final week of January. The winners of the school competition will potentially then compete in a regional/national competition.
The winners of Stage 1 and their respective house are as follows:
- Bora – Laine
- Mehran – Lane
- Tanya – Leyh
- Yousef – Leyh
- Harold – Marshall
- María – Marshall
- Amber – Rutherford
- Akshara – Rutherford
- Akhil – Turing
- Zuzanne – Turing
Well done to everyone in Year 7 who took part – it was a competition that practises a variety of skills, which stand you both in good stead for your future in Spanish but also more widely!
