Our holiday camps are a great way to learn more about the game of chess while having fun and making new friends in a relaxed atmosphere. During the morning session from 9am-1pm we will run a friendly tournament throughout the week and in between the rounds the children will solve chess puzzles, listen to short lectures, learn about end games, strategies and tactics, learn how to play with clocks, notations etc. We do a lunch break around 11am (please bring a packed lunch and a bottle of water, and if you are staying for the full day bring an additional snack for the afternoon break). In the afternoon session from 1-4pm we will do chess arts and crafts, read chess stories, play fun games like bomb chess, hand and brain etc. Then we will take a nice break outdoors to have a snack, play and burn off some steam.
