During the five-day camp, all the school participants were given assignments and required to do ICT-based presentations to share with the rest of the class on what they had researched. Upon completion of the innovation challenge, six students from SMK Kijal showed no signs to give up or depressed. Above all ups and downs, they were determined to compete though were challenged by highly competent competitors from various elite and famous schools such as SMK Elit Mak Lagam, SMK Premier Chukai, and SMK Rantau Petronas. The good personalities and competency the students possessed had finally deserved them the Best Group Award for the State Competition.
