It is the second roving exhibition on TOC, and is aimed at introducing the curriculum to parents who have to choose discretionary school places for their children this month in order to enter Primary 1 in September 1996.

A video on TOC will also be shown at the exhibition which opens daily from 12 noon to 7 pm.
The venues of the exhibition are: Entrance Arena, Shatin New Town Plaza (September 18 and 19); Exhibition Hall, Lok Fu Shopping Centre Phase I (September 20 and 21); Level 2, Metroplaza, Kwai Fong (September 22 to 24); Shopping Mall, Telford Centre, Kowloon Bay (September 25 and 26); and Centre Bridge, Level 2, Cityplaza, Taikoo Shing (September 27 and 28).
