Chess Mates

As the popularity of chess continues to grow at the College, in Term 4 students will be offered the opportunity to participate in chess lessons with Chess Mates. Following is a link to news feature that Channel 7 did on Chess Mates last year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYnGPD1wjz0&t=2s.

Chess Mates specialises in teaching children of all age groups and skill levels in a fun and engaging way. Younger students learn through songs and stories, while older or more advanced students are taught openings, strategies and forward planning. The focus is on making new friends and having fun while learning.

Chess Mates will be held afterschool on Tuesday afternoons from 3.05pm to 3.50pm at a cost of $10 per lesson.

An email requesting expressions of interest will be forwarded to all families this week. Once an expression of interest is returned, parents will be forwarded the relevant documentation including permission forms. If you have any questions about the classes, please contact Ash from Chess Mates at info@chessmates.com.au or 0415 256 452.
