On Tuesday 13th May, we sent two teams to the Manawatu Primary School Chess Champs to defend the title we won last year. Our A team was Jamie, Alex N, Jaxxon and Ronav, the B team Manik, Zareesh, Quinn and Rory. Both teams performed incredibly well with every player winning games across the day. Our A team successfully defended our title and have now qualified for the national finals later in the year; a huge achievement! Thanks to Zareesh's Mum and Jaxxon's Mum for supporting the tamariki on the day.
A very special thank you and ka pai to our Chess and Checkers lunchtime club coaches - Mr Evans and Mrs Hintz
