Take note that:

Our aim is to promote Bible Knowledge as a subject in schools. Hence, our policy is to pair students from the same school in the team event. This will also create fewer problems in the distribution of certificates and in the keeping of challenge trophies.

Mixed-school teams (from the same zone) are only allowed for singles who have no partner from the same school.

Those interested can give their names to Melody Yew (5E), Yen Ping (4A) or the teachers, Pn Ting or Miss Tiffany Tang.
