Chess

At Karingal Primary School, we encourage students to participate in chess.

Chess has been persuasively linked with improving children's concentration, problem-solving, critical, original and creative thinking – and even mathematical abilities. It is also said to help with memory storage and how young brains manage information.

Chess is great way for students to learn:

Turn taking
Problem solving
Strategies
Directional movements
Maths
Resilience
