During Terms 2 and 3, MLMC students have the opportunity to learn chess or develop their chess skills at lunchtime on Mondays when a professional chess coach visits the College. Coaching sessions began recently with a strategy session, followed by friendly chess games.
On Monday 22 May, students were able to sign up to participate in a speed tournament. The competition was a single elimination bracket with a five minute and two second time control and was open to the first 16 participants to sign up. Students enjoyed competing with their peers for the opportunity to win gift voucher prizes. The top six students were: Daniel Macfarlane (Year 12 Purple), Richard Laan (Year 12 Jade), Mitchell McNaught (Year 9 Bronze), Felix Giffard (Year 8 Gold), Jesse Delahunty (Year 8 Orange) and Jeremiah Wintergerst (Year 7 Bronze).
Congratulations and well done to all who participated.
