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.
