The year 2018 marked the first edition of the Kindergarden Spell Master where five competent students were selected as winners of the competition.
The process of the Kindergarten Spell Master competition is as follows:
- Grade 2 students are given a spelling list to study during the August vacation and once they return to school in the 3rd term, the best five students from each class is selected to take part.
- At the initial round competitors are given two simple words with three letters each, to be spelt correctly, to pass on to the next round.
- At the next round the number of letters per word is increased and difficult words are added. This goes on until a winner is selected.
The winner is crowned “Spell Master of the Year” while the rest are given certificates and prizes at the Kindergarten Assembly.
