School Spelling Bee 2026 🐝📚

Springtime Means Spelling in Scoil Mhuire
Springtime truly means spelling in Scoil Mhuire! Over the past fortnight, pupils from 3rd to 6th class have been competing in class rounds until two representatives remained from each room.
On Wednesday 18th February, we gathered in the Halla Mór for our Spelling Bee finals. The younger classes competed in the morning, with 5th and 6th class taking to the stage in the afternoon. After a few warm-up rounds to steady the nerves, the competition began!

The stage was set for the Class battles


🌟 Third Class
David, Jack, Harry and Martin impressed everyone with words such as capture, telescope, ancient, courage and nervous.
Harry won after correctly spelling curious. Well done!
🌟 Fourth Class
Charlie, Eve, Iarla and Michael confidently tackled words including authority, typical, permission and serious.
Charlie claimed victory with the word brilliant. Congratulations!
🌟 Fifth Class
Derik, Joe, Maya and Eoghan worked through challenging words such as perimeter, ambitious, determination and intercept.
A huge congratulations to Maya, who won for the second year in a row — a fantastic achievement!
🌟 Sixth Class
Elsa, Keelyn, Luke and Nathania delighted the audience with impressive words like melancholy, inevitable, vigilant and resilient.
Luke was crowned sixth class champion. Well done!

Each winner received a €10 voucher for the village bookshop, and every pupil who reached the class battle rounds earned a Homework Pass in recognition of their achievement.
The atmosphere throughout the day was full of excitement, applause and encouragement. Well done to all who took part — we are very proud of you all! And with that, our busy bees can return to their hive — enjoy the midterm break!
