On Thursday 5 November, 14 of our talented chess players headed to St Kevin's College, Benowa, to compete in the Interschool Age Championships. The tournament featured seven rounds of chess, giving students the opportunity to test their skills against players of all abilities within their respective age divisions.
Our students represented Caningeraba proudly, demonstrating fantastic sportsmanship, resilience and determination throughout the day, particularly in the hot conditions! There were plenty of strategic moves and intense battles across the boards.
A huge congratulations to Oscar and Max, who were awarded Merit Ribbons in recognition of the points they accumulated throughout the tournament. A fantastic achievement against a competitive field!
A special mention also goes to Sol and Isaac, who faced off in an epic, hard fought game that went the distance, eventually ending in a well earned draw!
Well done to all 14 students who took part. We are incredibly proud of the way you represented our school. Keep thinking ahead, planning your next move and, most importantly, enjoying the game!
