15 participants took part in last weekend's children's beginner chess session 🌸♟️🙌🏾
Vinaka to the parents for supporting their children and great to see the increasing interest from kids.
We also want to thank Tanvi, Praveer and Useli for facilitating the session and sharing chess techniques and lessons 🙏🏾
There will be no further children's chess lessons in March BUT we will be back in April - so stay tuned for updates 😀 ... See MoreSee Less
