Top 10: If you could add one rule to your school, what would it be and why?
This week's question: If you could redesign a spot in Hong Kong for teens, what would you change, and why? To take part, drop us a line via this form by 12pm on Wednesday, May 28.
Nicole Chan Cheuk-ying, 15, Shatin Tsung Tsin Secondary School: Respect and be friendly to your fellow students. While we often emphasise the importance of respecting our teachers, many people seem to overlook the need to respect their classmates. Our schoolmates play an important role in our school lives, so why not value and appreciate them as well?
Megan Lam, 11, Good Hope Primary School cum Kindergarten: Backstabbing should be banned because it arises from hate and jealousy, causing even the closest friends to betray one another. When a friend reveals your secrets to a teacher, it is incredibly hurtful and undermines trust. Promoting honesty and loyalty is essential for creating a positive school environment.
Sana Zaman Wong Sum-wai, 14, PLK Mrs Ma Kam Ming Cheung Fook Sien College: I would implement a daily 20-minute 'Calm Corner Time' for mindfulness activities such as meditation and deep breathing. Given that students struggle with sleep and concentration due to stress, this practice will promote relaxation and enhance overall well-being, fostering a positive school environment.

Former in-laws of slain Hong Kong model Abby Choi ‘didn't pay a penny' for children
The mother of slain Hong Kong socialite Abby Choi Tin-fung has claimed her former in-laws' family 'didn't pay a penny' towards her two grandchildren's living expenses, while alleging the model's ex-mother-in-law took up to HK$80 million (US$10.2 million) from the deceased for investment. Testifying for the prosecution, Cheung Yin-fa on Monday recalled her encounters with Jenny Li Sui-heung, who is being tried in the District Court trial for allegedly obstructing a police investigation into her son, Alex Kwong Kong-chi, who was Choi's ex-husband, after the model went missing on February 21, 2023. Li has denied the charge. Parts of her dismembered body were found in a three-storey village house in Tai Po's Lung Mei Tsuen village on February 24 of that year. She was 28. The 30-year-old Alex Kwong, his 67-year-old father Kwong Kau and 34-year-old brother Anthony Kwong Kong-kit are awaiting a murder trial behind bars. Li, 65, was charged with perverting the course of justice for allegedly urging Alex Kwong to abscond, knowing he was wanted by police for a 2015 theft case involving HK$6.3 million in gold and jewellery. The prosecution also accused Li of misleading the theft investigation and asking Cheung to remain silent if interviewed by detectives.
