We are proud to announce that our Economics students achieved outstanding results in the “Economic Reels Competition 2026”, organized by the Hong Kong Association for Economics Education and co-organized by the HK PolyU Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering.
The competition invited S4 and S5 students to showcase their creativity by interpreting economic concepts or explaining daily phenomena through a lively, 1-minute Reels format. Out of over 100 entries, four of our school’s teams successfully stood out to claim top honors.
Two of our talented teams captured the 2nd Runner-up position. Tang Po Yee and Tse On Yee produced an exceptional video on negative externalities, using a humorous example of unpleasant singing and a creative “magic microphone” to clearly explain corrective fines.
Meanwhile, Yip Hei Yau and Su Man Yan masterfully explained different wage payment methods—comparing time-rate pay with performance-based schemes like bonuses—through an engaging and memorable pirate-themed story.
Furthermore, two teams received Merit awards. Sin Kiu Yan and Lee Ka Wai explored opportunity cost by portraying a relatable, cinematic weekend choice between studying Economics and playing tennis with friends.
Lastly, Leung Nok Ting and Tsang Lok Sum brought great originality to the topic of externalities by analyzing how busking performance in a public park simultaneously create external benefits and costs for the community.
Congratulations to all our brilliant awardees! They have masterfully turned abstract classroom theories into highly engaging, real-world examples.
