GP5 at Sevenoaks School on Sunday 16th February 2020
A reminder that our GP5 tournament is this coming Sunday 16th February 2020, at Sevenoaks School, High St, Sevenoaks TN13 1HU
It would be good to see our young chess players at the event and we hope that it will be a fun day of chess and meeting up with friends.
Please register as soon as you can at: http://www.kjca.org/event/230
It is great that we have a venue such as Sevenoaks School for our tournament.
It is a large and prestigious school and there are always a lot of different events and activities going on, as well as some school boarders and young people on site. Please ensure that everyone treats all facilities, classrooms and outdoor space with respect.
Please take note the arrangements we have made with the school and ensure that they are followed:
We have use of the Solefields car park, which is in Solefields Road, opposite the entrance to the school.
Once parked, there is an underpass to walk across to the school buildings and Block D which is where our tournament and parents area will be.
This is the only area in the school complex that we can use to park cars. Please do not use any other spaces. KJCA will have parking attendants on hand to help out and ensure that we are using the correct part of the school grounds.
Alternatively, there are car parks in Sevenoaks town by the high street and it is a 5-10 minute walk to the school.
If coming by public transport, then Sevenoaks train station is about a 15-20 minutes uphill walk to the venue or there are several taxis based at the station.
In between the chess rounds, please remember that parents and carers have responsibility for their children.
Primary aged children should not be left alone, unless you have agreed direct responsibility with another adult / parent, and please ensure that you know where they are and that they are playing safely at all times.
The school has also said that there are no football or ball games allowed in the school grounds.
We will also have access to a catering area which will be where you can have food and drink (not allowed in the classrooms).
We look forward to seeing all our young chess players on Sunday
