The 2011 Spelling Bee champion is Jessica Needham from Room 5. Jess spelt "anthropology" correctly in what turned out to be the final round, as all of the other 6 contestants remaining, made errors. Jess competed against 40 finalists in front of an evening audience of parents and students in the auditorium. Congratulations Jess. With this win she also gained her 20th koru, qualifying her for her silver badge, the first person in the school to do so!
