League game vs Panorama 26 July
Hello everyone.
Just a short post with regards to the league match last Friday.
Unfortunately the game didn't take place. Due to misunderstandings on both schools part, we first decided to postpone the match. After I spoke to Panoramas Chess teacher, she agreed that we would rather cancel the match. The decision was taken because both of us have busy weeks ahead of us.
I do apologise for any inconvenience that this misunderstanding caused.
Not to worry as we have a lot of chess lined up for the rest of the term. Three league games to come and a tournament like we haven't seen or played at Aristea. Look forward to the letter going out to parents and players this coming Tuesday, for more information.
Hope you have a blessed and peaceful weekend!

Holiday Puzzles V
Good day everyone.
I have been 'under the weather', not feeling well this last week, thus the reason why I'm so quite lately. Today is the first day in a week, that I've been feeling better, so more posts, more regularly will follow!
Two more puzzles for the holiday.
Enjoy! :-)
