The Spelling Bee encourages children to learn their key spelling words in order to compete in a friendly and supportive environment amongst their peers. All children who take part are celebrated and supported.** **During the summer term, we will have a MAT Spelling Bee Competition whereby we will compete against the other schools in our academy in order to win the MAT Spelling Bee trophy.** **How will it work?** **Please take the time to learn the key spelling words (download available below) in order to allow your child to compete in a friendly and supportive environment in which all children can achieve and aspire to be the best they can be. At the end of each term, your** **child's class teacher will complete heats with their own class to find the year group winners in school. A MAT final will be held during the summer term to see which school is the *Spelling Bee Champion*. All children who take part will be awarded a Spelling Bee certificate in our Achievement Assembly.** **We encourage and support all children - in every year group and of all abilities - to take part.** ### Spelling Bee Letter for Parents Spelling Bee Letter for Parents 2026-2027 87 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-marys-ce-primary-school/files/documents/Spelling_Bee_Letter_for_Parents_2026-2027.docx.pdf) ### Spelling Bee Autumn Term 2026 Spellings Autumn 2026 Spelling Bee Year 5 and 6 69 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-marys-ce-primary-school/files/documents/Spelling-Bee-Y56-Autumn_term_SM_and_H_2026-27.pdf) Autumn 2026 Spelling Bee Year 3 and 4 81 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-marys-ce-primary-school/files/documents/Spelling-Bee-Y34-Autumn-term_SM_and_H_2026-27.docx.pdf) Autumn 2026 Spelling Bee Year 1 and 2 61 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/st-marys-ce-primary-school/files/documents/Spelling-Bee-Y1_2-autumn-term_Sm_and_H_2026_27.docx.pdf) ### Parents - [Forms](https://st-marys-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/forms) - [Term Dates](https://www.tssmat.staffs.sch.uk/about-us/term-dates) - [Parent Handbook](https://st-marys-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/parent-handbook) - [Attendance & Absence](https://st-marys-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/attendance-absence) - [School Closures](https://st-marys-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/school-closures) - [Policies](https://www.tssmat.staffs.sch.uk/governance/policies) - [Food](https://st-marys-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/food) - [Uniform](https://st-marys-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/uniform) - [PTA](https://st-marys-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/pta) - [Parent View](https://st-marys-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/parent-view) - [Spelling Bee](https://st-marys-ce-primary-school.schudio.com/parents/spelling-bee) ![St Mary's C.E.
