Word Wizard @ Craigroyston
On 17th March, Amber (2A) and Asha (2A) attended the 2017 Semi-Final of the Word Wizard. This is a multilingual spelling competition open to all S1-S3 pupils in Scotland learning French, Gaelic, German, Mandarin or Spanish.

The competition provided a perfect opportunity to address The Attainment Challenge by allowing pupils of all levels the chance to excel in language learning. Word Wizard develops skills in acquisition of vocabulary, pronunciation, spelling, recall and public speaking.
Word Wizard was organised by SCILT, Scotland’s National Centre for Languages and CISS, the Confucius Institute for Scotland’s Schools, with support from the University Council for Modern Languages Scotland and the Universities of Strathclyde, St Andrews, Aberdeen and Dundee.

The name of the finalists will be announced by the end of March! Let’s keep our fingers crossed for the girls who worked extremely hard to prepare for this highly competitive event!
