As we come to the end of this academic year, we also say goodbye to St John Bosco Catholic Academy as we enter a new chapter and join St Gabriel the Archangel. 💙
It has been a truly special journey — one filled with faith, dedication, and a deep sense of community. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to every pupil, parent, staff member, director, governor and supporter who has been part of SJBCA. Your commitment and care have made all the difference.
Wishing you all a peaceful and well-deserved summer break, filled with joy and rest.✨
We were honoured to be invited to the opening of Sophie’s at St John Bosco this week! 🎉✨
Sophie's is a community drop in spot at St John Bosco where there's a warm, welcoming space for a hot drink and a chat. Visitors are welcome to donate to the community food bank or take what they may need, or just pop in and stop for a drink and a chat with others.
Sophie's is proudly dedicated the memory of Sophie Masterson who was so supportive of the school's care for its community.

🏅 Year 5&6 Academy Sports Day at Tipton Sports Centre! ⚽🏃♀️🔥 What an incredible day of teamwork, determination and sporting fun! Our children shone in football, dodgeball, team games and athletics 💪🎯
We’re so proud of how they showed our values throughout. @StJohnBoscoCA
We were honoured to be joined by Suzanne Richards, the mother of Joel Richards, as we marked the 10th anniversary of Smile for Joel. This summer term, all our charitable events were dedicated to smile for Joel, a charity very close to our hearts as Joel attended two of our schools, St Mary’s and Stuart Bathurst. As a family of schools we have raised an unbelievable £4,500! 💜
A special moment came at the end of the day when Suzanne presented St Bernadette’s with their cup — a memory we’ll treasure. Thank you to all our schools and families for their incredible effort and support.

🏆 A huge congratulations to St Bernadette’s for winning the cup for the second year in a row - what a fantastic achievement.

As we prepare to become St. Gabriel the Archangel MAT, we look ahead with hope, joy & faith 🌈📚 #NewBeginnings#CatholicEducation#LoveShoneDown@StJohnBoscoCA
Today, we came together for our final Mass as SJBCA, marking the end of an incredible chapter and the beginning of a new journey as St Gabriel the Archangel. 💙
In a powerful moment of unity, each school walked the pathway to bring a candle to the altar - a symbol of our individual lights joining together to form one community, one future, and a new beginning.
This was more than just a farewell, it was a celebration of everything that makes our academy so special: our unity, our faith, and the lasting bonds we’ve built together. ✨
A huge thank you to St Mary’s for hosting a wonderful Mass in your beautiful parish church, St Mary’s on the Hill, Wednesbury.
Year 6 had a lovely time this morning at @bishopmilner as part of their transition. The children came back feeling very confident about the move to secondary school in September! @StJohnBoscoCA
Year 6 had a brilliant visit to St Chad’s Cathedral ⛪️ last week!
They explored its history 🏰, spoke with parishioners about faith 🙏 and took part in Mass ✝️.
They represented our school beautifully! 👏💙
