Saturday the 3rd of July was one of the highlights of the Manor Park social calendar: The Little Ilford School Fete 2010. It is a great opportunity for the community to come together and enjoy some fantastic foodie delights and mosey along different stalls selling all manner of things. From Henna stalls and homemade jewellery stalls to food from around the world, everyone enjoyed selling, buying and sharing experiences with those around them. We had a ‘Penalty Shoot Out’ kindly ran by our local Police, Sponge a Teacher, a deckchair exhibition, a Graffiti artist, a Renault East London display, a Nu-Sound Radio transmission and a live stage with performances from both professionals and students alike. MP Stephen Timm’s joined in the fun and said ‘it’s incredible to see everyone coming together to enjoy a true community event’. Head teacher Yvonne Powell said ‘Thanks to everyone who came together to make this summer event so special’ This not to be missed event is usually held on the first weekend of July, so if you missed it this time make sure to come next year!
