On Wednesday 9 November, we had the pleasure of hosting 60 children from seven local primary schools for our Chess Competition!
We were delighted to see the talent and logic displayed by the participating children.
We’re excited to see you develop your skills in preparation for the next tournament in March!

The day was a fantastic final celebration of the Mathematical talent that exists in our young people across the city and wider region, and we are so proud to remain key hubs for bringing such talent together – we’re already excited for next year!
Beyond sharpening my public speaking and critical thinking skills, MUN left me with incredible memories and a deep appreciation for diplomacy. It was an exhilarating experience, and I can’t wait to do it all over again!
