In the junior division, IHS and DPS, Sharjah tied for first place in the girls section while Dubai Modern High School (DMHS) grabbed the boys title.

Forty three teams from 15 schools took part in front of a full house and there were 11 gruelling rounds covering general knowledge and traditional quiz questions.

The quiz master for the event - organised by the Indian Association, Dubai - was Prathiba Umashanker, a Khaleej Times journalist.

In a closely fought event, it was anybody’s game till the last round.

“In a quiz with all its ups and downs, the sharper and quicker teams always make it,” said Prathiba.

The event culminated in the evening with a ceremony for the podium finishers in the quiz and the winners of the Tiffany On The Spot painting competition that was held on November 21.

The painting competition saw 10,000 students participate in five categories. The prizewinners received gift vouchers from Tiffany and Nonions.
