Volleyball

In the space of 12 months, the Sixth Form have put together their own volleyball team, which trains weekly under the guidance of Head Boy Youki (U6RS). On a Thursday lunchtime, the Sports Hall is a hive of activity with pupils from Year 7 to Upper Sixth hard at work developing their skills: a terrific demonstration of the value of the School’s sense of community. The climax to the term’s volleyball activity was a fixture at Park High, which saw John Lyon run out victorious 3-1. n

I am delighted that The Lyonian magazine has integrated with the School’s termly publication – this will enable regular updates and sharing of content and activities from the School community: pupils, staff and Old Lyonians (OL).

This term has been eventful: from sporting triumphs to entertaining drama, musical ensembles, collective efforts to fundraise for charities and academic excellence across both Schools. Of particular note, the increase in visibility of the Lyonian Association on the website, email and social media platforms has certainly proved positive and attracted a cohort of OLs from various careers to volunteer their time and provide inspiring career talks.

We do hope you enjoy this new approach and welcome your feedback at lyonianassociation@johnlyon.org.
