We’ve partnered with Pebble and Nest to offer a warm, engaging, and structured introduction to chess for complete beginners aged 4.5–7.

 

We’ve created a programme that blends early-years development principles with clear, simple chess foundations, perfect for children who are brand new to the game.

​

Children learn how the pieces move, how to set up the board, how to spot safe and unsafe moves, and how to start thinking one step ahead, all at a gentle pace suited to young beginners.

​

If your child has never learnt chess before, this is the ideal starting point. They’ll feel supported, encouraged, and excited as they take their first steps into the world of chess.

​

If your child has already had an introduction to chess, please visit our Chelsea Chess Club page to find a class that matches their level.
