Congratulations to the eleven children who represented St Saviour’s Primary School in the Toowoomba District Primary Teams Chess competition on Tuesday 7th September.
Our Open Team 1 (Kye McHugh, Sean Darvall, Isabel Hoole and Bianca Flanigan) played extremely well and placed 11th out of 62 teams, narrowly missing out on a grand final position (top 10).
Our Open Team 2 (Kyara Flanigan, Sophia Bumatay and Oliver Guy) all competed in the teams competition for the first time, played with one person down and came away with at least a few winning games each.
Our Novice Team, (Liam McHugh, Parker Bohm, Hugo Seaby and Hari Vinod), also participating for the first time in a teams competition, played competitively in a field of 23 teams.
The students reported having a great day of chess, laughter and teamwork. Well done to them on their exemplary behaviour. Thank you also to Mrs Shelley Murphy for taking the time to supervise.
