History was made this weekend as our Year 8s won their match against St Martin’s School from Brentwood in Belle Vue making it a clean sweep with us incredibly winning all four matches – a once in a lifetime feat.

The good news doesn’t stop there either.

With Year 7s already being named as Champions earlier in the year that makes us National England Basketball Champions in EVERY year – 5 titles now to our name.

Coach Senior explained: “This is massive for us. The boys come in early every morning for practice ready to work and improve and they really deserve this recognition. The buzz this weekend was amazing with everyone talking about one East London school dominating the national stage. Our support was phenomenal too and everyone was transfixed, keen to stay in the loop on our progress but we just kept winning. It was nice to have some parents travel up to Manchester too to support their sons. It was a truly memorable weekend.”

Head of PE, Chris Topping said: “I couldn’t be more proud. The boys worked so hard for this and wanted to win so much.”

Headteacher Mr Halliwell added: “This is not a fluke. This is the result of the hard work, dedication and enthusiasm of our staff and students. This has never happened in any school before. St Bon’s has made history this weekend.”
