On Tuesday 8th November 2016, the newly-elected Student Council traveled off to Brentwood for the day to build on their leadership skills as Student Councillors, as well as, improving on their figures as Bonaventurians. The students kick-started their day by heading off to the Sion Training Centre, participating in many icebreakers and teambuilding exercises, getting to know one another as a ‘work force’ for the school. Despite the ‘physical’ exercises imposed on them, they seemed to make good use of it by relating it all back to their work as Councillors for St Bons!

After a morning of indoor brain work, the students went off to get some fresh air – and no better place to do it than at the high level air based rope course at Rope Runners, near the renowned Nuclear Bunker! The students were placed at certain levels with a whole load of challenges at their faces.

But, the students did very well to conquer the challenges, as well as all of those that day. So, a big well done to this year’s Student Councillors and a lot is expected of them!
