Students from Year 3 and 4 will compete at 10am in a knockout format until a winner is decided. Students from Year 5 and6 will then follow the same format. Successful students will then be invited to compete at the Regional Final which will be held inTerm 3.The word list for the Premier's Spelling Bee is password protected and the school is not allowed to share the password onwebsites or in newsletters. The Office Staff and your child's teacher can be contacted to supply the password to families. The linkfor accessing the lists can be found at: pelling-beeThe lists are very large to print, children can bring a flash drive to school to download the word lists and teachers can provide thepassword.My big tip for success with The Premier's Spelling Bee is to make sure students use the annotated word list to accurately makethe link between unfamiliar words and their meaning to improve the chance of spelling words correctly on the day. All Year 3-6students are welcome to enter the Ballina Public School Spelling Bee, names can be given to Mrs Wheatland in the office.Mrs WheatlandSpelling Bee Coordinator
