Chess Program in St. Lawrence Migyera

It was a happy 28^th Friday 2013 morning when chess game was introduced to St Lawrence primary school Migyera. Chess was introduced to both children and the teachers by the Well’s family headed by Timothy S. Cusack in companiship with Judy and Timmy.  Both children and the teachers very much enjoyed the game because it was so interesting. Some teachers had ever heard of the game but they had never got a chance of playing it. And for the Children it was their first time to hear of chess and when they were told that they were going to learn Chess, they were so eager to learn. And as I write, they are perfecting the game so well.

Still more, the Well’s family did not only teach St. Lawrence children only, but they further went on and Introduced Chess to another school called St. Josephs in Nabbingo were most of our primary sponsored Children who live around Nabbingo go for school. It was such a great moment when Timothy, Judy and Timmy stormed St. Josephs. The children were so much welcoming since they were so much eager and looking forward to learn chess.

Am so happy to see it that these two schools have established and formed a “CHESS CLUB” in these schools. Long live Change a life Uganda.
