Thanks to a group of enthusiastic chess students, the Primary school held its second chess tournament this week. A staggering 64 students, from Year 1 to Year 6, took part in the competition which was organised and run by a student-lead Action Team, under the guidance of Mrs Russell, comprising of Nikita, Franklin and Sean. Luckily, with the support and guidance of our chess expert and peripatetic chess teacher, Simon Marcu, we were able to accommodate a huge number of participants! It was a wonderful event, held over four days, and culminated in a mail-biting final on Thursday! Well done to our finalists, Jason in Year 1, Sean in Year 6, Nikita in Year 3 and our overall winner Franklin, from Year 5.
