SIR DAVID We are devastated to hear alumnus Sir David Amess has died from his injuries today. We are praying for his beautiful family and cannot believe such a kind & gentle soul has died in such a way. May St Bonaventure and all the choirs of angels come to greet him and guide him to paradise. Eternal Rest grant unto him O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him, May he rest in peace. Amen.

WE HAVE LIFT OFF No, not Jeff Bezos and William Shatner boldly going where no man has gone before but something far more practical and close to home. A huge crane arrived and made a special delivery to school today, October 15. A new, compact pod was safely manoeuvred into place by the bike sheds. The pod is from @olivediningltd , our caterers, and will soon be up and running serving paninis, sandwiches pasta pots and a range of other food to upper school students. The pod will provide a quick exchange of snacks - a grab and go - so Olive Dining can feed more students and improve their already excellent service. We can’t wait to see our students trying it out. #mmmm #schooldinners #healthyschools #yummy

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT In order to build confidence and enhance the School Council candidates’ delivery of their manifestos for the elections during the first week of November, Ms Laws and Ms McNulty held master classes in school this week. The students read out excerpts from a range of Shakespeare’s plays. Ms Laws acted out a model example of successful speech making, whilst Ms McNulty demonstrated the way not to deliver a speech. Top tips such as voice projection, maintaining eye contact with the audience, resisting the urge to fidget, and so on were given. The students also watched a video tutorial from a professional voice coach. Our boys were very pleased to have been given the opportunity to take part in the master classes, not just in terms of their forthcoming speeches but to call upon as a lifelong skill. Best of luck to all our candidates in the forthcoming elections.

ENJOYING THE GREAT OUTDOORS A group of Year 11 boys are spending the first of two nights camping with Mr Bastian, Mr Gilbey and Mr Firth tonight, October 13, as part of the OCR Cambridge National Sports Studies course. They have already had an action-packed day of activities including cycling and mini golf. They’ve also been on a long trek around Thorndon Country Park in Brentwood. They are going to be pooped! It sounds a lot of fun as well. More photos tomorrow.

COUNCILLORS DROP IN TO CEMENT COMMUNITY RELATIONSHIPS We welcomed Newham councillors Daniel Lee-Phakoe, Anthony McAlmont and former student Terry Paul into school today, October 13. They spent time speaking to staff and students to find out about the support and pastoral care provided in our school. They recognised the very special relationships that exist within our community and that it had huge benefits to the students who attend St Bonaventure’s. They left impressed with what they saw and heard and we are looking forward to working further with the borough and sharing our good practice. @terrypaul8021 @danielleephakoe @newhamlondon @rokhsana_fiaz
