Chess

It is a well-established fact that playing chess in school enhances students’ concentration, improves their problem-solving abilities and increases their self-esteem. Of course it’s good fun too and it helps forge friendships which are long-lasting. Chess helps students become more patient and it lets them realise that certain behaviour carries certain consequences. Interestingly, chess improves their recall, analysis, judgement-making and predictive skills. That’s pretty impressive for an extra-curricular activity isn’t it?

We have approximately seventy players this academic year, some playing twice-weekly during lunchtime.
