Education Centre Workshops :
Supported by Education Centres around the country. Starting in October 2020. There are two courses available this year.
The first course, Chess 4 Fun, is for teachers who are new to chess. The focus is on playing mini-games for fun. The games are easy enough for senior infants to play.
The second course, our school chess club, is for teachers with some chess knowledge who want to help their student to improve their chess playing skills, organise chess club activities and have a school chess team.
