Our chess club was originated since year 2000 with proper training under qualified coachers, Mrs. Sanoja Perera and Mr. Asiri Peramunugama. And we are proud to say that our chess players have shown their colours locally as well as internationally bringing honor to our school Ave Maria Convent. Here are some of our best performers.
