Annie and Hugh competed in the Otago regional competition on August 2, and won 2 of the 5 regional places in the National final. They then competed over 3 days in Auckland, against 36 other top spellers from around the country later in August.
Thanks to Ms Liesbeth for all her organisation, encouragement and coaching.
