The Pamelus Burke Government School, represented by Nicola Hackshaw and Tonyah Williams, who was also rewarded for being the most outstanding speller, placed second while the third position went to the Diamonds Government School, represented by Gorlee Thomas and Sherica Fergus.
Other participants were Aresha Lawrence and Yasmine Hackshaw from Colonarie Primary, Rodrico Dalzell and Shevanica Neverson from New Grounds Primary and Deron Butler and Franeca Glasgow from the Park Hill Government School.
This Spelling B Competition was held as part of Child Month celebrations. It is expected to be an annual event, as students of the seven primary schools vie for the CCF Challenge Trophy.
