Earlier this week, we saw the conclusion of this year's chess tournament. 37 players from across all of key stage 2 started the competition with Angus and Georgie contesting the final. After a close contest, including one stalemate, Angus emerged victorious.
Our two semi-finalists, Lucas and Amelia, played out a 3rd place match with Amelia being declared the winner.
Final standings:
1st: Angus (VW)
2nd: Georgie (VW)
3rd: Amelia (SBJA)
4th: Lucas (SBr)
A special mention must also go to Callum (MS) for being the furthest placed Year 4 and Milo (CR) for being the furthest placed Year 3.
Regular chess club will continue in the Summer 2 term and is open to anyone in KS2 regardless of previous experience or knowledge. It is the best place to start practicing ahead of next year's tournament.
