CITY MUSEUM TO ORGANISE MORE EDUCATIONAL COMPETITIONS
A special children's competition run in conjunction with the
Hong Kong Arts Festival 1972 proved so popular that similar ones are
expected to be held in the future.
More than 1,800 children participated in the competition which
was based on their powers of observation, logical thinking, imagination
and written and pictorial expression.
It was the first of its kind and according to a spokesman for
the City Museum and Art Gallery led many school children to a closer
understanding of the contents of the collection in the museum.
A number of medals of merit and trophies are being awarded to
individual winners and schools for their outstanding performance in the
Children's Museum Competition.
