| In late December 1999, Mr. Tim Rogalski from the USA visited our school to take part in a Simultaneous World Chess Exhibition. Tim had contacted us through our web site about two months previosuly as he was looking for a school in Thailand that would be willing to take part in this chess exhibition. | |
 |
 |
| We selected 17 of our best students from both the Primary and Secondary school. The competition started at four in the afternoon with Tim walking around the room playing one piece at a time. | |
 |
 |
| Once Tim had made his move, the students were given about 1-2 minutes thinking time as it took Tim a little while to walk around the room making one move on each of the 17 boards. On his return, the students had to make their move straight away. They weren't allowed to move while he was elsewhere. | |
 |
 |
| The students really enjoyed the two hour exhibition even though none of them were winners. We are hoping to make this an annual event. | |
