Students from Immanuel College Preparatory School and Sacks Morasha proved the pick of the bunch in this year’s Etgar creative contests.

In the writing competition, the year-5 students had to imagine what Israel’s first Prime Minister David Ben Gurion might have said in his diary on a visit to the country today.

Winner Tilly Lobb from Immanuel “thoughtfully and creatively” explored B-G’s impressions of modern Israel, the judges said.

On one morning, she had him heading off to Tel Aviv “so I can relax at Frishman Beach! Maybe, I can even go to the statue of me doing a headstand”.

Sacks Morasha duo Tali Field and Tia Gray clinched the design award, with their entry for Israel at the Venice Art Biennale.

“The cake is a brilliant fusion of North West London birthday party chic and Israeli cuisine,” the judges remarked.
