Spellathon Infomation




Dear Parent/Caregivers

We are holding a Spelling Bee over the next four weeks of Term 3, with the dual aims of developing our students’ skills and knowledge in the area of spelling and as a PTA fundraising initiative. The Woodstock School Spelling Bee involves the children learning their words before being tested in a written test. The senior children of the school will have the opportunity to be considered and compete for a place in The Great Waikato ASB Spelling Bee. More information will be made available to the Year 5 and 6 children.

All students will be given an appropriate spelling list of words to learn and a sponsorship form.

The Spelling Bee will be a component of our homework focus. It is expected that the children will learn their words at home to be well prepared for an excellent Spelling Bee score.

The students can seek sponsors who will sponsor so much per word, or can make a donation towards the event. Please encourage as many family and friends to become involved as you can.

When the testing is completed in Week 6 of this term, your child will come home with a Score Card from their teacher indicating the number of words that they got correct in their test. The students can then collect the money from their sponsors.

All money and sponsorship forms must be returned to the school office by Friday 23rd September 2011.
We look forward to a wonderful response!
