🚨 THIS WEEKEND! Looking for a school-holiday activity for a young chess player? ♟️

Our Holiday Chess Skills Accelerator is two days of coaching with Eamon and Alex at North Woodvale Primary School.

📅 Saturday 3 & Sunday 4 October
🕙 10:00 AM – 1:30 PM each day
💲 $60 per student

Day 1 is all about tactics. Day 2 moves on to strategy, openings and attacking the king, with plenty of practice games along the way.

Ideal for kids who have played chess for 3+ months, understand basic tactics, and are ready to improve. Both days are preferred, but one day is fine if that's all your child can make.

Only 20 places, and registrations close 1 October. 🏆
