Perhaps his most significant contribution in this field was his founding and chairmanship of the Education Committee at Stanley Internment Camp in 1942. Within a few weeks of three thousand members of all sections of Hong Kong's expatriate community being sent to interment on Stanley Peninsula, Forster's Committee had organized schooling for the hundreds of children confined there.
