♟️ We are back to recording our chess games!

It’s wonderful to see the children embracing the challenge of learning chess notation, working together, supporting one another, and growing as players. Every lesson brings new discoveries, confidence, and plenty of smiles.

Watching their talents develop while having fun is truly magical. We are so proud of each and every one of them. ❤️

A big thank you to the wonderful staff at Kilkee Library for their continued support and warm welcome.

Chess is not only about pieces — it’s about ideas 😎♟️

A beautiful checkmate, even though the knight was under attack. Sometimes the best response is not defence, but a decisive attack! 🔥

Chess teaches us to spot opportunities, think several moves ahead, and never give up — even in difficult positions ♟️✨

Kilkee Waterworld officially reopened its doors on the 7th, welcoming everyone back for another fantastic season! 🎉

There’s something for everyone to enjoy — a fun water slide, relaxing sauna and whirlpool bath, a children’s pool, and a cosy café to unwind after a swim.

It’s especially wonderful to see local school children taking part in swimming lessons, helping them build confidence in the water and learn important water safety skills.

A huge thank you to everyone who makes this place such an important part of the community. Wishing everyone a great season filled with fun, relaxation, and happy memories! 🌊

We learned a short checkmate in just 3 moves today.

Chess can be surprisingly tricky sometimes 😮

The shortest checkmate in chess — quick, sneaky, and unforgettable!
