Students compete in law quiz
The grand final of the Inter-School Law Quiz Competition for primary school students was held today, where five teams from different schools tested their knowledge and understanding of the Constitution, the Basic Law, the rule of law and Hong Kong's legal system.
The competition was one of the rule of law education events under the Department of Justice's Vision 2030 for Rule of Law initiative, and also one of the celebratory events for the 25th anniversary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region's establishment.
A total of 42 teams from 39 primary schools participated in the competition and five teams made it to the grand final.
Participants studied the reference materials provided by the department to grasp a better understanding of the rule of law, thereby consolidating their law-abiding awareness.
Addressing the event, Secretary for Justice Teresa Cheng praised the students' outstanding performance and expressed her pride and full confidence in the younger generation.
She also hoped that all students will put in effort to study and contribute to society with the spirit of the rule of law.
Ying Wa Primary School won the competition, while Fuk Wing Street Government Primary School and Yuen Long Public Middle School Alumni Association Tang Ying Yip Primary School came in second and third runner-up.
