Our Year 11 students took part in an inspiring workshop with Inner Spark, where they listened to @fusionhosts , who is a Transformative Storyteller, TED speaker, and creative force.
Students explored a variety of topics, from Willard Wigan and the world’s smallest sculpture to the ...powerful stories of Zion Clark and Christina Adane. They also learned how to use Google Alerts, and gained insight into the commercial property world.
Special thanks to @innersparkuk, @fusionhosts, Freddie Norton, @highperformancefoundation, and @goyalfoundation 🙏🙏

St Bonaventure’s has been working closely with the @highperformancefoundation (HPF), a charity empowering young people with resilience, wellbeing and employability skills.
We are proud to have helped develop the Game Plan Resources and to welcome the HPF filming team into school. Some of... our students were invited as special guests to the inaugural roadshow event hosted by @jakehumphrey
Members of our leadership team, Mr Lewis and Mr Bartlett, continue to support HPF events, championing resilience and the challenges young people face today.
Mr Lewis shared: “We’re already using the Game Plan resources in Year 11 and 6th Form and rolling it out to Key Stage 3 after Christmas. We’re proud founding members of the HPF Alliance and excited for what comes next. Our students are eagerly awaiting the next Game Plan Live event too!”

Third Sunday of Advent. 🕯️
The candle lit today is pink, and on Gaudete Sunday, we mark the halfway point until Christ's birth at Christmas. This halfway point is a reminder to celebrate joy, peace and gratitude.
Today, we celebrate the love of Jesus and look for ways to... bring his joy to others. Let's share joy this Advent! 💫

The Newham Deanery Youth Council delivered the fantastic Ignite 2025 event recently - a day or worship, performance and testimony.
Hosted in St Antony's Parish Church, Forest Gate, the day began with a Mass, celebrated by the wonderful Fr Dan and Fr Paschal, and co celebrated by ...priests in the deanery.
A host of celebrities from Adenike to Onse from The Voice were present to hear fantastic talks from Monsignor John Armitage and great performances from different parish choirs. Our students musicians and singers not only supported the deanery choirs but also performed their own songs.
"It was great to be part of such a huge event, and experience what it is like to perform in front of hundreds of young people. It was a truly blessed day" Adi Year 7
