Joanna Wilkinson carefully checking competition entries.

We received 145 entries in our recent Close to Home Wordfifind competition. Great care was taken in checking every entry. Unfortunately, some entries had words duplicated where they should only have been used once. There were also lots of strange words that weren't in our very large dictionary, and according to the conditions of entry, we couldn't allow them. We are pleased to announce the following winners.

5-9 years

Corbyn Baker, Christchurch (85)
Ethan Jessop, Auckland (56)
Gabrielle Kenworthy, Ruatoria (44)
Belinda Petherick, Auckland (36)

10-14 years

Olivia Atkinson-Robertson, Lower Hutt (124)
Tessa Green, Christchurch (86)
Rebecca Bealin, Dunedin (68)
Cheyenne Mamanu-Gruppelaar, Dunedin (66)

Henri Maes, Lower Hutt (139)
Melody Freeth, North Auckland (112)

Roger Tozer, New Plymouth (103)

Thanks so much everybody. We had such a positive response from our entrants that we intend to run a similar competition in our September issue.
