The school fielded 8 teams in the inter-school Chess competition hosted by the NSW Junior Chess league. There were 3 Senior division teams, 3 Intermediate division teams and 2 Junior division teams. The overall results can be seen on the NSWJCL website.

The Metropolitan East Region has some of the strongest school teams in the competition and those in the Senior and Junior divisions were very strong this year. Our Senior A teams had the best result was a 3rd in their division as did our Junior A team in the Junior division.

The Intermediate teams have been particularly strong at the school with outstanding results in all three divisions; the A team finished outright 1st losing just one match out of 28 played. The B team finished equal 2nd just half a point behind the team placed first.

The Intermediate A team will now progress to the regional championship stage against teams from Conservatorium High School, Cranbrook High School and Sydney Boys High School.

Thanks from all the staff and coaches to all the representative teams on a wonderful competition period and to the commendable commitment of all the individuals involved. All students were a credit to the College in their behaviour, attitude and sportsmanship.
