Spelling Bee semi-finals

On Thursday 27th May the MFL department held the Spelling Bee semi-final for Spanish ahead of next month’s final at Barlby High. There was a really positive response from our year 7s (almost 30 turned up!) and they all scored very highly - many of them got full marks in the written test. We then had a knock out round with pupils having to spell the words verbally. We now have our 3 finalists - Charlotte Leetham, Charlotte Armstrong and Emily Hanks. Massive congratulations to those students and all the others involved for working so hard. Fingers crossed we beat Barlby High this year! The year 9 French finalists are Flossie Smith and Kyle Leyshon (and one other yet to be confirmed). Our year 8 English finalists are Kate Hinken, Ben Hird and Harry Draper. Well done to all and see you at Barlby High on Monday 13 June at 6 p.m.
