JBCN International School, Mulund’s first-ever inter-house chess competition, was a strategic battle that saw the houses pitting their best moves against each other! 
Our learners enthusiastically participated in the U-8, U-10, U-12, and U-14 competing categories as their peers cheered them on.
At JBCN International School, chess is not just a game, it’s a tool that enhances cognitive skills, memory, and strategic thinking. It fosters concentration, creativity, and emotional intelligence, providing a recreational outlet while promoting discipline and logical reasoning.
