We teach chess in ADELAIDE Metro and in SOUTH AUSTRALIAN Country schools. Classes in ADELAIDE Metro are conducted on a weekly basis during school hours, lunch times or after school.The format of our chess club in schools usually involves a 15 minute talk or demonstration at the start of each lesson.

This will focus on a particular theme, tactic, strategy or idea. Children are then encouraged to play monitored games in a tournament setting as well as to play social chess variants. Prizes and certificates are awarded during the year to stimulate further interest and friendly rivalry. Chess sets and clocks are provided by Chess School SA.
