Staff, students, and families gathered for our final Home–School Parish Mass of 2025. It was beautiful to see our young people reading, serving on the altar, and participating so reverently. A truly uplifting way to begin the Advent season together.

“I really enjoy serving at Mass, so ...being able to serve at our school parish Mass helped me feel even closer to God. It allowed me to connect more deeply with my faith and with the church that is such an important part of our school community. Serving during Advent made it feel especially meaningful - a reminder of hope, preparation, and God’s presence in my life” Aoife Year 12

6th Form students have broken up for Christmas following a beautiful and reflective final Advent Liturgy held at St Anthony’s Church. 🎄✝️

This year marked a special milestone as we presented the Assisi Ties for the first time. These prestigious awards recognise students who truly ...embody the St Bon’s Virtues in their daily lives. The Assisi Ties were awarded to Maryloy, Ademola, Michael and Rhea in recognition of their outstanding contributions, not only within the school community but also beyond it.

As always, our Year 12 and 13 students showed their strong sense of unity and mutual respect, offering rousing applause in celebration of their peers. Yet, another testament to the close-knit community this 6th Form has become over the course of the term.

The final Advent candle has been lit before Christmas. 🙏

Representing Love, everything we have been preparing for leads to this. God's incredible love for us is shown in Jesus.

Let's think about how we can say yes to love. As we prepare to celebrate Christmas, ...let's remember what it's really about.

Throughout Advent, our whole school community pauses each day to pray the Angelus. This prayer helps us remember the Angel Gabriel’s message to Mary, and it gives us all a moment to stop, pray and reflect in the midst of a busy school day.

Our Songaventures Vocal Group recently visited Newham General Hospital to spread Christmas cheer through carolling, bringing joy to staff and patients alike. 🎤🎄

The boys did an excellent job lifting spirits across our wider community, using the gift of their voices during this ...festive season. Congratulations and well done to them all.

We are not just a school; we are an integral part of our community.
