Spelling Bee 2020
Spelling Bee by Jason Kolom and Julijus Stankevičius.
A School Spelling Bee took place in Scoil Chroí Íosa recently. There were fifteen contestants from Fifth and Sixth Class. Ms Kelliher was our excellent Spellmaster. At the start of the competition there were two warm-up rounds. In the warm-up rounds, the words were basic and easy to start off with. As the competition went further, the words became harder and longer. The rounds flew by and people were getting eliminated until all came down to two people; Darragh Lawless and Jason Kolom. Darragh stumbled on his last spelling whereas Jason got his, pharmacy, correct. Jason will now be going forward as Scoil Chroí Íosa’s representative to the Eason’s County Spelling Bee in Cork City in the near future. He will be competing with schools from all around County Cork for a chance to win Eason’s vouchers for himself and the school. Well done to all involved!
