Bunaíodh club fichille i nGaelscoil Faithleann i mí Eanair 2024. Tá fáilte roimh páistí ardranganna (rang a 3-6) a bheith mar bhall don gclub. Tá Gaelscoil Faithleann mar bhall do Ficheall, gréasán scoile a chruthaíonn nasc idir scoileanna i gceanntair éagsúla ar fud na tíre chun comórtais idir-scoile a eagrú ar líne agus go fisiciúl agus chun an cluiche a chuir chun cinn i scoileanna as tír.
Is é aidhm an chlub fichille ná scileanna sóisialta agus cognaíochta páistí a fhorbairt agus chun comórtais slántúil agus comhluadar dearfach a chuir chun cinn sa scoil i suíomh compordach, ionchuimsitheach. I gclub fichille Gaelscoil Faithleann, foghlaimeoidh na páistí chun an cluiche a imirt trí mheán na Gaeilge.
The chess club in Gaelacoil Faithleann was started in January 2024. Children from the higher classes (3rd to 4th) are welcome to join. Gaelscoil Faithleann is a member of Ficheall, a network for primary schools that organises in-person chess tournaments between local schools, as well as online tournaments, and promotes the game in schools throughout the country.
The aim of the chess club is to develop children’s social and cognitive skills and promote healthy competition in an inclusive, comfortable environment. In Gaelscoil Faithleann’s chess club, children will learn to play through the medium of Irish.
