Site Visit to Chess Club at Tonga High School

On 28th of August 2026, two officers from TongaHealth's Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E) Team visited Tonga High School’s Chess Club to monitor the progress of their Chess for Health program, funded through our Health Promotion Action in Settings (HPAS) program.

The project goal is to establish a chess club at Tonga High School that is open to all students, using chess as a positive tool to help reduce stress, support mental wellbeing, develop critical thinking, and provide a safe and inclusive space for young people to connect and socialize. Through this funding, the school has been provided with chess sets and chess clocks to support the establishment of the chess club.

During the visit, the Head Boy of Tonga High School shared a meaningful reflection on how chess can teach valuable life skills:

“Chess contains many pieces, and every piece of the chess board has different functions. When we play chess, we must learn to use all those pieces wisely, that teaches us skills such as critical thinking and make wise decisions and that is very helpful for our mental health”.

TongaHealth is proud to support initiatives that create healthy environment and supports the wellbeing and mental health of our children. 💚
