Chess Club
Currently attending My Village students are invitied to enroll in our Chess Club which is held after class hours from 3:30-4:20.
In addition to being able to play chess with each other, we have paid for a unique online program created by a professional chess player, Steven Bloom. Some of our students have had online lessons with Mr. Bloom and we have seen that he is an excellent teacher and keeps the kids interested. This program is recommended for ages 6 and up therefore Chess Club is available for our Primary B, C, Tween classes.
