Harrow International School Inaugural School Chess Championship 2024

On Sunday afternoon 5 May 2024 some 70 Harrow students came to school to play in the first internal competition for 6 Prizes, including the Champion titles in the Pre-Preparatory, Preparatory and Senior/6th Form categories. In addition, there were prizes for the Best Year students as well as Best Girl prizes for each year.

The excellent indoor and outdoor facilities at Harrow helped to execute the event smoothly. Coffee, tea and cookies were provided by the school for the large group of interested parents who stayed during the entire event and such parent interest surely helps to create value for the event in the eyes of the children.
