On Thursday, April 26th, several Grade 5 & 6 students from the Swan River Valley met in the St. Andrews United Church to participate in the annual Spelling Bee, hosted by the Swan Valley Fine Arts Festival Association.

The Grade 6 students participating in the Spelling Bee.

Grade 5 spellers from the Valley.	Another group of Grade 6 spellers.
The pronouncer giving the word in a sentence to explain the word’s meaning.	The recorders were writing exactly what the spellers said.

The teams from each grade with the least errors will receive an award at the Awards Festival on Thursday, May 3 @ 7:00 p.m.

Next year, we hope to have an Adult Spelling Bee in the evening, if there is enough interest.
