Around the School
From July 17- 21, Bacchus Marsh Grammar Woodlea were proud to host the Victorian Junior Chess Championships. The competition was attended by 360 students from around the state. The event was overseen by Hobson’s Bay Chess Club, Wyndham Chess Club and Chess Victoria. In attendance, were dignitaries from each organisation and the Honourable Steve McGhie, MP for Melton. The event was an amazing success for all involved and highlighted the growing passion for the game across Melbourne’s western region. Bacchus Marsh Grammar were the most represented school in attendance with twenty-two players participating across the weekend. Well done to all competitors!
