The school chess tournament culminated in grand final games in mid-November. The finalists were able to play with a small audience of their year level peers. The chess boards and clocks were displayed on the television screens so that everyone could see what was happening.

In the Intermediate division, Yohance Espina and Noah McHenry were both outstanding Year 10 players, each having one every game they played throughout the year. Their grand final game was an exciting one, with the students evenly matched throughout the game. In the end, both students were left with just their kings on the board, resulting in a draw. A re-match the following day resulted in a win for Yohance Espina.

In the Junior division, Caleb Piacentini and Oscar Nguyen (both in Year 7) played their grand final game with intense focus. However, Oscar ended up checkmating Caleb and winning the game.

Congratulations to all the Chess Club students for their excellent sportsmanship and dedication throughout the year.
