It’s hard to imagine that teachers and staff were ever cute little babies and toddlers I know, but that’s exactly what students are being asked to do and match up their baby photos with names in a competition to raise money for TELCO for refugee families in London.

The competition is the brainchild of 8 Forest’s Ethan Suppaya and he has been working extremely hard gathering the photos and putting them together.

12 year old Ethan asked Director of Religious Education, Mr Lewis, to help him out and put together entry forms.

Entry is 50p and all students and staff are encouraged to enter and put a name to the 25 faces.

First prize is a ÂŁ20 Nando’s voucher with other prizes for the runners-up.

Forms have been given out to Year 7 and  8 and all other Years and staff can collect forms from the staff room or Mr Lewis.

The deadline for entries is May 19, 2017.

Mr Lewis went on the explain: “Ethan is heavily involved with raising awareness of the plight of Newham’s refugees and the Refugees Welcome campaign and when he approached me about how we could raise some money this seemed like a fantastic idea. He added: ” I’m sure it will be a popular competition but It’s not easy to match up the faces with the staff but I’m sure lots of people will want to have a go and submit answers.”

The big reveal will be before we finish for the Whit half term.

Good luck everybody.
