A group of Year 4 children from Firs Hill School went down to London on 11th December 2013, accompanied by Mr Foster, to take part in the 5th annual London Chess Classic at the Olympia Stadium in Kensington.
They had the chance to have a chess lesson from a professional chess player who has been playing for over 30 years!
They had a brilliant day and even scored 44 points during their chess tournament, despite having to be at school for 6am and enduring a 4½ hour coach journey.
