Here are the results of the first-ever Talbot’s Got Typists! Competition…
Gold Medal goes to Kayleigh Perkins of Mr Carty’s 6th Class with a new record for Talbot–a net speed of 31 words per minute (wpm).
Silver Medal goes to Surprise in Ms Doherty’s 5th with 28 wpm.
And Bronze Medal goes to two quick typists with 24 wpm, Taylor in Ms Cahill’s 5th and Jade in Ms Harrington’s 5th.
Anyone who thinks they can beat Kayleigh’s record of 31 wpm next year should start typing now… just go to www.typingweb.com and begin learning how to type using all ten fingers. Good luck!
