“Amazing” creativity was on show as pupils and staff put their culinary skills to the test in the annual Great West Hatch Bake Off.
Cakes of all shapes and sizes were entered to the contest at the school in Chigwell, with people voting for their favourites online.
A grand final will be held, with six winning students going through.
Louise Bruce, Jessica Reynolds, Gabrielle Kettleborough, Talia Black, Ben Aviram and Sushanthan Chandramohan will be joined by staff members Guy Blain, Jenny Peters, Amanda Hume, Robyn Turtle, Rob Tester and Coralie Reid.
Organiser and head of house Guy Blain said: “This year the creativity has been amazing.
“We had everything from a Game of Thrones cake to Alice in Wonderland.
“The attention to detail has been incredible.”
