National Chess Team
Colleen Elkins – Gifted and Talented Co-ordinator K-6
Our A-team comprised of six Year 5 students, qualified as the NSW Champions in the inter-schools’ competition and hit the national stage in Canberra.
Our boys played five matches against the best team from each state with commendable focus and were in contention for a 3rd place for most of the tournament, finally coming in narrowly at 4th place. Our congratulations go to the boys for facing the strongest team from each state with such nerve and determination.
They are to be commended on their tireless efforts throughout the season and their support of one another.
Max Tsipris won the trophy for Highest Scorer on Board 4.
Thank you to the School and the parents for their support both during the weekend and throughout the season. Our gratitude goes to their coach, Michael Todd, who supported and coached the team with tireless dedication throughout the season.
