Congratulations to this year's winner of the school's Chess Tournament!
 
Once again, Lionel Walden Primary School entered the annual Delancey UK Schools' Chess Challenge, the world's largest chess tournament!
 
Twenty pupils from Years 4, 5 and 6 attended Chess Club during Monday lunchtimes.  The tournament consisted of seven rounds and all players scoring 17 points or more, together with leading scorers from different categories, have qualified for the Megafinals which take place in Cambridge on 1st June.
 
Well done to all Chess Club members for exhibiting such sportsmanship throughout the tournament and for encouraging new members to come along and become involved in the game.
