If you are St John’s Old Boy, we would love to hear from you. We have a database of Old Boys who we keep informed about celebratory occasions and other significant events in the life of the school. If you would like to add your details to the database, please contact us at oldboys@st-johns.org.uk
St John’s Old Boys
Alumni
St John’s alumni can be found in all walks of life and in practically every country around the world. We have celebrated sportsmen, writers, artists, actors, musicians, academics, explorers, politicians, members of the armed forces and a veritable army of boys who have gone on to become influential men in their chosen fields of endeavour.
It is always a special pleasure to welcome back ex-pupils and their families when their own children begin their education at St John’s. In some cases, several generations in a family have attended St John’s.
Reunions
At our first Old Boys Reunion, held in June 2016, we welcomed over 400 Old Boys and their families representing at least 80 years of association with the School. They were given a tour of the buildings and grounds (many remembered the school before it moved to its current site) and were treated to lunch followed by a performance from our Brass Band, a game of cricket between our 1st XI team and an invitational team mainly drawn from the previous year’s leavers. At a subsequent Old Boys’ event in 2018 the crowd was even larger, with more recent leavers attending.
Our special Centenary events in 2020 had to be cancelled during the pandemic, but we are now ready to start planning events again. We will contact you by e-mail when we have made arrangements. We are hoping that a significant number of Old Boys and their families, staff, present and past will be able to join us.
