Today began the first ever chess club in Scoil Talbot, run and organised by students. Everyone really enjoyed playing their friends or making new friends. Well done to Danny Connell and Samuel Despet! They had the idea for this club, they went around and promoted it, and they organised all the players.
If YOU would like to play chess, here are three links to help you:
- A set of lessons for beginners, including how chess pieces move, how to set up a chess board, and chess tactics.
- Rebecca recommends three ways to begin a game of chess
- A young expert teaches tactics
The 6th Class Chess Club will run for three weeks, Wednesday lunchtimes, in Ms Skelly’s classroom. 6th class children all welcome. How much? Free.
