Can you spell onomatopoeia? How about antidisestablishmentarianism? Or… zygote? These could be among the words that are challenging local students as our local elementary schools begin working towards the district-wide spelling bee in February.
Arrow Heights Elementary School held its school-wide bee on Friday and Columbia Park and Begbie View students will soon compete in their bees. If you enjoy words, language and writing then spelling bees will get your blood pumping.
In the meantime, here are two photos from the AHE bee:
