On Monday, 22 July, 22 students from our school participated in the annual SACCSS Chess tournament. Approximately 300 students from 16 schools competed in this event. Each student played 7 games of chess with nearly all of our students winning the majority of their games. This was a very pleasing result and a fitting reward for the hours of practise the students have been applying into improving their skills. Congratulations to our Intermediate team for placing second (only one point behind the winning team). Also, a special mention to Bavly Sedrak for being awarded a bronze medal for his individual performance. 

Junior Team: Noah Ng, Levi West, Nathan Tran, Matejas Juric, Nathaniel Del Mundo, Dion Turner, Zach Pilekic and Evan Santiago

Intermediate Team: Ivan Kolceg, Gabriel Lazarevski, Ethan Tu, Xavier Faustino, Bavly Sedrak, Harrison Payne, Daniel Thanh and Chase Grima

Senior Team: Lorenzo Calingan, Sebastian Carrier, Mikheak Al Jamil, Xavier Bernard, Denzel Espinosa and Bradley Podolczak

Well done to all of the students who represented our school in an exemplary manner!
