Formal launch of Battersea Catholic Schools Together

. 

Saint John Bosco College, together with Sacred Heart Primary School and St Mary's Catholic Primary school are proud to announce the launch of BaCST - Battersea Catholic Schools Together. On a sunny summer's morning at the church of the Sacred Heart children, staff, parents and parishoners gathered to celebrate the eucharist and, in so doing,  make a formal commitment to working together as a Catholic educational community in Battersea. We share so much: a common ethos based on the unique, God-given dignity of the child; a belief that every child should be known by name; a commitment to excellence and a desire to collaborate. 

Best GCSE & A Level results yet for SJBC

Dr Uttley and Mr Polyviou congratulate Mubaraz, Damola, Joao and Fatima as just some of our high achieving A Level students who are now heading off to university as the new school celebrates its best-ever results. 

Mr Bradford and Dr Uttley celebrate with Nyewuna, Isabella, Carolina, Paulina and Bailey as they celebrate excellent GCSE results. Accumulating a magnificent 26 A* and 27 A grades, this group reflects just one facet of this year's tremendous achievement. Well done!

Brazilian Guests bring the Olympic Spirit

Sejam muito bem-vindos! Another wonderful group of visitors to our fantastic new school. This time from Brazil! A group of students and staff from Salesian schools in the North of the country - Salvador and Nadal. Describing their sentiments as 'very impressed' our guests were briefed by the Headteacher and our school's very own Guest Master, Mr Lane (pictured above together with school Chaplain, Fr Saju). 

Savio Awards - the Class of Summer '16

'Team Savio' invite Dr Uttley to present this term's Summer Awards in recognition of their various achievements over recent months. This time the students gave their own personal reflections on their successes and wowed the audience with some outstanding presentational skills. Particulary powerful was Harry P.'s moving speech and, below, he receives one of three special awards. Congratulations also to James and Agyeibi who also received special prizes. 

Reflections in the Sussex countryside

The annual 'Girls' Retreat' to the Benedictine monastery of Worth is now a well-established feature of the academic and spiritual year. Our group, lead by Ms O'Rourke, Ms Addai and Fr Saju, took full advantage of the tranquil setting and stunning surroundings in deepest Sussex. The girls enjoyed meeting Fr Gabriel, a monk of the community, who shared his insights into monastic life. Dr Uttley also dropped by to celebrate Night Prayer in the beautiful Abbey church. The Benedictine motto 'Pax' - 'Peace' - seemed to sum up this wonderful time together.
