It was wonderful to see many Old Lyonians from the Class of 2015 arriving in their former group of friends, hearing funny memories and “I don’t remember that being here” on the school tours, to learning about what everyone has been up to the last 10 years. Along with the 2015 cohort, it was amazing to have some of the Class of 2020 return - for them the event was extra special, as their final year was cut short by the pandemic. A big thank you to Mr Lewis, who taught many in both year groups and came to catch up on their post John Lyon adventures, from university life to career paths.

After tours, everyone made their way to the Refectory where the room was soon buzzing with chatter, laughter, archive flipping, and of course, enjoying the legendary buffet crafted by Sarah and the catering team (yes, it got rave reviews!).

Thank you to everyone who came! Reunions like this remind us that no matter how far you go, or how long it’s been, John Lyon is always home. See you at the next one!
