Yesterday the finale of the Spelling Bee was held at Orchard with Viridis semi-finalists competing. With an audience watching, each group had to spell out a selection of words until a finalist was triumphant. Congratulations to our winners, one pupil from Orchard and one pupil from Southwold who left with their trophies to display in their school cabinet. Thank you too all our competitors for their hard work and dedication!
