Excitement, tension, and fierce competition—this was the atmosphere at the TNIS Spelling Bee for the International Elementary Track! From simple words for our Kindergarten – Grade 1 students to more challenging ones for our Grade 2-5 spelling warriors, the competition was electrifying at the TNIS Library on the morning of February 21!
🔹 The competition followed an elimination format—a single spelling mistake meant immediate disqualification.
🔹 Contestants were divided into age groups: Kindergarten - Grade 1, Grades 2 - 3, and Grades 4 - 5.
🔹 Only the last spellers standing were crowned champions!
The word lists were released on February 20, giving participants time to prepare. But once on stage, confidence, focus, and quick thinking were the real keys to success!
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR CHAMPIONS
🥇 Mei Linh, Hana, Jackson
🥈 Yuna, Ian, Minjae
🥉 Harin, Hong, Yumin
💪 We can’t wait for next year’s SPELLING BEE—where the words will be even tougher! Who will be our next champions? Stay tuned!
