36 young linguists from Entel's English Village Summer Camp battled nerve and phonetics in a July 16 Spelling Bee Championship, culminating in Xu Tongyuan (Class 5) claiming victory with "laundry" under crushing time pressure.

The competition saw cross-house camaraderie shine as eliminated contestants like Shen Jingrong (Class 3) cheered rivals while analyzing accent nuances between British/American English. Champion Xu credited Yellow House teammates and coaches Caleb/Martyn for maintaining composure during tiebreaker rounds.

Beyond trophies, participants like Zheng Hanyue (Runner-up, Class 4) gained strategic vocabulary-building insights, while Jin Yanwen (Class 6) discovered unexpected spelling prowess through the camp's phonetic mastery program.
