Congratulations to Noa S. of St. Columba Catholic School for winning the Grade 4 Girls City Chess Championship! Noa demonstrated exceptional strategic thinking and skill, outmaneuvering competitors to claim the top spot by winning all five of her games. She has now qualified for the Provincial Chess Championships in May.

Noa only began playing chess in September and has quickly excelled at the game. We commend her outstanding achievement and wish her continued success. Her coach Alexander Mates and our St. Columba staff and students are very proud of Noa’s achievement and this amazing accomplishment!
