The annual Mind Over Matter: Hong Kong Inter-School Quiz invites students to test their general knowledge at German Swiss School on September 23.

Mind Over Matter is the oldest English inter-school quiz between schools in China, Hong Kong and Macau. It’s open to students in Form Three and above.

Students compete in groups of three and work through multiple rounds of questions.

The questions cover a variety of topics, from comics to current affairs to history and ancient civilisations.

Things will kick off at 10am, with a preliminary round followed by the finals on the same day.

Mind Over Matter is co-organised by The Indian Chamber Education Trust, which promotes academic excellence and a partnership between India and Hong Kong; and Tvameva Solutions Overseas Limited, a company which holds workshops on leadership training and business storytelling.

The event encourages students to be curious and take an interest in the world around them.

Students interested taking part must form a team of three people. It costs HK$1,800 to enter.
