Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this pilot RCT is to test the feasibility of an online quiz game to promote tobacco-related knowledge, attitudes and behaviours in local primary 5-6 school students. The main question it aims to answer is:

* Feasibility of intervention
* Acceptance of intervention by schools, teachers, parents and teachers
* Adherence to the 4-week intervention
* Functional online quiz platform
* Satisfaction of students and parents towards intervention Researchers will compare the questionnaire results from students to see if students doing tobacco-related questions on the online quiz platform will have better tobacco-related knowledge, higher anti-tobacco attitudes and lower intention to smoke.

Students will engage in an online quiz competition for 4 weeks on tobacco-related topics for the intervention group and on healthy eating for the control group. They will complete pre-test and post-test questionnaires before and after the online quiz competition.
