The borough’s biggest free event saw bands like S Club Party perform on the main stage hosted by Time 107.5FM. alongside a wide range of attractions including craft stalls, RCWA wrestlers, an interactive animal experience, Miles the Mole and the youth bus.
 Awards have been presented to all those who brought colour and cultivation to the borough as part of this year’s Havering in Bloom competition.
From Best Community Garden to Best Hanging Basket, to Best Allotment and Best Front Garden, the efforts from local residents, businesses and schools, were rewarded at a special lunch with the Mayor of Havering, Cllr Dilip Patel, on Tuesday, at the Town Hall.
 Students across Havering were jumping for joy after they received their GCSE results.
Students achieved a 68 per cent standard pass in English and maths, which was well above last year’s 59.1 per cent national average.
Cllr Damian White, Leader of Havering Council, said:
“We’re really proud of our students who have achieved a fantastic 72.4 per cent pass rate, with nearly half of them (45 per cent) receiving a grade of seven or above."
