WHO ARE WE?
Chess at Three is a US/ New York based venture capital backed early education company, newly launched in Singapore since August 2023 with strong growth plans. We have three original educational products that cater to children from ages 6months to 11 years.
- Our signature product Chess at Three, introduces chess to children from the surprising age of three, through fun games and engaging stories. Children become successful chess players while also exploring the foundations of math, strategy and sportsmanship as they journey with a unique cast of characters on an exciting narrative adventure.
- Birchguard Quest is a speech and drama program for children aged 6 to 11, in the form of an educational roleplaying game, that develops creativity, collaboration, communication and leadership skills.
