“I’m so happy to have won, but I was also nervous and worried I might not succeed,” the boy said as he expressed expressing excitement over his achievement.
Shaun takes home P10,000 in gift certificates from SM, P10,000 from National Bookstore, and P3,000 from Jollibee.
He will represent SM City Bataan in the national grand finals of the SM Super Spelling Bee this October at SM Mall of Asia with over P50,000-pot at stake.
