Description: Backgammon is one of the more popular 2-player table games that use an element of strategy and luck to beat your opponent. The game has stood the test of time and is thought to have first been played in Mesopotamia and Persia some 5000 years ago. Backgammon is a fast game where skill is critical to winning, but, unlike chess, the dice add an element of luck that makes the game exciting in its unpredictability.

Room: Library
Who is it for? All Students

Description:

The Library is a fun place at lunchtimes at CCS for both Secondary and Primary students and not just a place to read! We have plenty of fun board games, card games and Lego for everyone to play, build and create. There’s always a jigsaw puzzle in the making and numerous Colouring In sheets to choose from. Lunchtime is also an opportunity for Secondary students to borrow books, catch up on and print school assignments. A place for Secondary and Primary students to come together and enjoy each other’s company over a game of chess or Uno or just conversation.

The best part of Library at lunchtimes is playing Lego – Hamish & Will, Year 1

I would love to chat with you about how I can partner with you to further your child’s music education.
