Twenty-five primary schools competed in the Tribute to Icons and the musical face-off categories at the El Dorado East Secondary School (El Do Blue)..
The Tribute to Icons is a creative presentation on a much-admired parang legend.
On November 16, 15 secondary schools will be vying for top honours in the two categories.
Here are some of the primary schoolers at the competition.
