Learn to be a chess champion! Coaching for students at Newington College (Wyvern House) is held on Tuesday and Fridays from 1.00pm – 1.40pm  in Mrs Ryan’s room. Chess coaching will commence in Week 3.

Learning and playing chess helps children develop their logical thinking and problem solving skills, improves their concentration and focus, whilst also being a great source of enjoyment. Activities include group lessons on a demonstration chess board or interactive whiteboard, puzzle solving and fun practice games.

Students earn merit awards by making checkmates, or by displaying skills and positive qualities, which all good chess players strive to develop.

If your child is interested in taking part, you can print an enrolment form from Spaces or email enrol@sydneyacademyofchess.com.au for a copy. For all enquiries, please contact Sydney Academy of Chess on (02) 9745 1170.
