Chess
Last half term seems like such a long time ago, but this is my first chance to report back on the Year 2 Chess Masterclass with Mr Tuck. Year 2 showed themselves to be a really talented and focused group. Like the Year 3 boys before them, Year 2 examined some of the key logic skills involved in the game: sequencing, spatial awareness and problem solving.
 
Winners of a chess badge, showing themselves to be chess naturals, were: Murray, Satyan, Arty, Harry and Hadley. Very well done to all of Year 2! You worked really well.
