SFX Team Chess v Whau Valley Primary

Today St.Francis Xavier Team Chess hosted the Whau Valley School Chess Team. Mrs. Gulick, who coaches the Whau Valley School team, brought their team of five senior students to our school. The games were held in our school library, at lunchtime.
Mrs. Gulick organised five games between the two schools. The atmosphere in the Library was very quiet. You could hear the children thinking :) Whau Valley School won four games to one. They are great players. We are proud of our team's effort in their first taste of outside competition. We are very proud of Leah Bucknell, who played for forty minutes and won our only game for us.
St.Francis Xavier School looks forward to more chess competitions with Whau Valley School.
