The Chess and Jiangnan Primary School
Every people of Jiangnan Primary School have some feeling about the chess: love, proud...Look back upon history, Jiangnan Primary School has opened the chess course for more than 30 years.
Jiangnan Primary School grew out of the Sigongli Primary School, which had more than 70 years education history. In 1980s, Sigongli Primary School had opened the chess course.

The chess projects of Jiangnan Primary School in the education sector in Chongqing, had little known, and trained a large number of talented players for the upper level schools, some of them have become Chess International Grandmasters, such as Zhang Zhong and Huang Qian. We began to look at the chess project has nearly 30 years of history, through continuous explorations, suddenly: the Chess is a science, culture, art, sports integrates athletic intelligence, rich chess theory and connotations. If teaching chess, chess, carry out interest classes, training professional chess player is a technical inheritance, then the connotation of the interpretation and application of chess theory is a kind of sense perception. By combing the two schools' history, from the end of chess theory summed up the moral enlightenment the purpose of educating kids, condensed into Steps to Your Future Lighten the Life philosophy and With Every Step Remember Your Future motto.
The meaning of the School Motto
When we play chess, we should consider about the whole situation. So our school motto originated in it. We all know that the chess is good for the students' intelligence.
