The Wembley Cluster Annual Spelling Bee was a fantastic success, bringing together pupils from Barham Primary School, Preston Manor School, Sudbury Primary School, Uxendon Manor Primary School and Mount Stewart Schools Federation. Pupils from Years 2–6 competed in three exciting rounds of very challenging spellings, demonstrating excellent vocabulary knowledge, resilience and confidence throughout the competition.

A huge well done to all the children who took part and represented their schools so brilliantly. Learning to spell accurately is an important part of developing strong reading and writing skills, helping children to communicate clearly and confidently across all areas of the curriculum.

Congratulations to our Spelling Bee Champions:

• Year 2 – Preston Manor

• Year 3 – Barham

• Year 4 – Sudbury

• Year 5 – Preston Manor

• Year 6 – Mount Stewart

Congratulations also to all of the runners-up for their fantastic efforts and determination. The event was a wonderful celebration of learning, teamwork and academic excellence, and we look forward to next year’s competition!
