A huge thank you to all our former students who returned for our Careers Day and delivered a series of inspiring talks to our Year 12 students.

The advice, encouragement, and real-world experiences you shared will be invaluable as our students begin to navigate an increasingly competitive ...job market and make important decisions about their future pathways.

Special thanks to our keynote speaker, Koby Adom, for setting the tone with such a powerful start to the day, and to all our brilliant speakers for generously giving their time and expertise: Alex Olalla, Craig Heskey, Dwayne Black, Godfrey Mercado, Jason Degraft-Quansah, Jesse Wireko-Gyami, KB Agyemann, Joshua Aderele, Layo Ogundayo, Mabel Ogundayo, Amaka Udeogba, and Rex Osafo-Asare.

Your continued support and commitment to the next generation truly make a lasting difference.

We are preparing to celebrate the school’s remarkable 150th anniversary with a series of inspiring and memorable events that bring together current students, staff, alumni, former staff members, friends, and supporters of our community. These celebrations will honour our rich heritage while ...looking ahead to an exciting future of growth and innovation.

Our Annual Summer Art Show will take place on Monday, 6th July, from 4:00pm to 6:00pm. 🎨💫

This is a wonderful opportunity to view the beautiful artwork created by our Year 11 and Year 13 students over the past two years.

Alongside the exhibitions, we will have a selection of... prints available to purchase for £6 each. We hope to see as many of you there as possible and look forward to celebrating the creativity and achievements of our students.

We are delighted to hear that our alumnus, @tinchystryder, will be one of the headline performers at a live outdoor music event in Newham this weekend.

Tinchy is widely recognised as one of the UK’s most influential grime artists. He grew up in Newham and attended our school before going... to university.

We are extremely proud of all our alumni and their achievements across a wide range of fields, and we continue to wish them every success in their future endeavours. If you have any interesting stories about St Bonaventure’s alumni, please email: publicity@stbons.org

A group of Year 7 students took part in an exciting session led by the Newham Growing Things Project.

They learnt about a variety of herbs and got hands-on experience planting rosemary, thyme and chives, developing their knowledge of gardening and sustainability.

Congratulations to Mr Bastian, who proudly represented England Over-50s in the Four Nations tournament. 👏⚽️

England produced an outstanding performance, winning all three of their matches and defeating Northern Ireland 5-2, Scotland 3-1 and Wales 2-0 to finish top of the group.

Representing your country is a tremendous honour, and Mr Bastian’s contribution to an unbeaten and successful campaign is a fantastic achievement.
