One of many Thomas Hassall lunch time clubs is the chess club, a small team of student who are there to master the art behind the millennia old game of chess.
Did you know that by the 2nd turn of Chess there are 197,281 different positions on the board?
In the last week of August our chess team was gearing up for two competitions, a regional competition, which we qualified for last term, and the MISA Chess Competition held at another school. While we weren’t able to make to the next level of our regional competition, both our Junior and Senior team placed second in the MISA Chess Competition, picking up a silver medal for their efforts.
