Last Kid Standing: Mt. Edgecombe private school's Kiara can spell!

Loading player...
THE LONGEST AND MOST SUSPENSEFUL ROUND YET!
Jack, Kaiyen and Kiara were today’s smart spellers ! Nobody would have anticipated 4th graders could spell SO well.

Jack Goodwin from St Henry's Marist College, Kaiyen Naidoo from Bay Primary School and Kiara Naidoo from Mount Edgecombe Private School swiftly proceeded to the next round

“cheque”, “surely” and “carefully” kicked off the slightly difficult round on a strong note. Unfortunately, though, Jack wasn’t able to spell “magazine” we are still in the game with Kaiyen” and Kiara.

The third round was extended to an urgent "BOWL OF HARD WORDS" round because of the two master spellers outspelling Darren, Keri and Sky’s.
