Chess

The Chess season begins!

The first round of Inter-Schools Chess began last week, with our Primary A team playing St Therese Mascot and our High School team playing Reddam House.

The players did an excellent job and both teams won 4-0. We are so proud of them, both for this result as well as for the sportsmanship with which they participated.

Well done to all our players:

Primary A team                                  High School A team

Sol Biton                                             Daniel Melamed

Joshua Leslie                                     Jesse Herdan

Dan Blecher                                        Myles Cohn

Daniel Zipser                                       Zac Sidley

Myles Cohn showing the utmost poise whilst strategising. (Grandpa looking on!)
