Victorian Chess Interschool Chess Championships update

Congratulations to Thomas Lin, George Missailidis, Jasper Snell, Daniel Dessau and, Takshil Kamineni who participated in the Victorian Interschool Chess Championships run by Chess Victoria on November 24th.  TPS came 11th out of twenty-five schools in the state which was very impressive for their first inter-school chess appearance. Seven games of chess over five hours were completed with one hundred and twenty children present. 

Results:

George Missailidis scored 5 out of 7 wins.

Jasper Snell 4 out 7 wins.

Daniel Dessau 4 out of 7 wins.

Thomas Lin 3 out of 7 wins.

Takshil Kamineni 1 out of 7 wins. Many thanks to Jasper’s grandfather who acted as chaperone and, by all accounts, a great time was had by all. The parents, staff and children would also like to thank George for opening up the world of competitive chess to Toorak Primary School.
