Among them, "Our Dream City" Primary Student Design Contest's preliminary round was conducted, shortlisting ten finalist teams whose entries will be exhibited at "Hong Kong Engineers Week Carnival" (Carnival) from 1 to 3 March. In addition to appreciating the students' works, visitors can also vote for their favourite designs (public voting accounts for 30% of the total score). The finalists will also present their design concepts to the judging panel on day three (3 March) of the Carnival.

"Our Dream City" Primary Student Design Contest aims to inspire creativity and foster teamwork among primary school students, nurturing their interest in urban development and the field of engineering from a young age. The model works of the shortlisted teams primarily revolve around themes of environmental sustainability and creating liveable cities, incorporating concepts of artificial intelligence, innovative technologies, and the IoT into urban design, envisioning a green lifestyle in line with sustainable development.

In addition to the "Our Dream City" Primary Student Design Contest, the Carnival will feature the final rounds of "Our Future Engineers" Secondary Student Quiz Contest and Engineer Alliance.
