Word Mania is an online word building competition for schools in Australia and New Zealand. It is a way to improve literacy skills but also have fun with words. This year, two small groups of our Years 7 and 8 girls participated in the competition and have spelt their way to the finals for our district. This week they have been busy building words and are hoping to be among the prize winners.
Below are quotes from some of the girls who took part.

It takes a while to get fast at word building, it is challenging to drag the letters to make words. Ava Guthrie
