Some very lucky girls from the Patterson Lakes Primary “Cyber Girls” were given an exclusive tour of Parliament House and morning tea with Donna Bauer MLA! Chess is much more than just a game, it has taken so many people to so many different places. Great to see such recognition given to this outstanding team! Thanks Donna for recognising the efforts that these girls have made.

Does school support your chess?
I know some parents find it difficult to get support for chess at their schools. But take a look at this and think how lucky you are – at least your kids aren’t expelled for playing chess!
Great coverage in The Age
The Victorian Interschool State Finals attracted some good coverage in The Age today
And some nice photos…
