Chess season 

Despite major disruptions, the JNSW Inter Schools Chess season has begun!

Relieved that this event could still take place, we had five teams of students excitedly head off to their host schools last Friday. All schools are maintaining strict health measures, so apologies to the parents who had to sit in the car!

Well done to our Primary A team players for winning all four games.

• Our Primary B team won 2 out of 4 (against an A team).
• Our Senior Beginners scored 2 out of 4.
• Our Rookies (Year 3 and under) scored 2 ½ out of 4.
• Our High School team scored 2 ½ to 1 ½ vs Scots.

All players fared well, according to their ability – some sitting down to competition circumstances for the first time ever.

Well done to all players and thank you to the parents who helped with organisation.

We wish the teams well in their upcoming matches!
