Moments that made Iona home

Stories shared by alumni across the years. Add your own when you join.

Morning devotion under the almond tree

Every morning we'd line up in the yard while Teacher sang the opening hymn. The breeze off the hills, the smell of the earth after rain — I can still hear the whole school singing together.

Marlene Grant

Class of 1994

The great inter-house sports rivalry

Green house against gold, the whole of St. Mary it felt like watching. I ran the 400m barefoot and won by a step. Coach Pinnock never let me forget it — in the best way.

Devon Wright

Class of 2003

Learning to read in Miss Campbell's class

She kept a shelf of dog-eared storybooks and let us take one home each Friday. Iona is the reason I became a teacher myself. I'm passing on exactly what she gave me.

Sasha-Kaye Bailey

Class of 2011

From Our Alumni

Reunions that started here

What Iona graduates say about coming back together.

I hadn't spoken to anyone from my class in almost twenty years. Within a week of joining I'd found six of my old friends. It felt like coming home.

Andrea Foster-Reid

Class of 1998

This network helped us pull together our whole class for the reunion. From London to Kingston to St. Mary, everybody came back for Iona.

Kemar Simpson

Class of 2007

Reading the memory wall brought me straight back to those mornings in the schoolyard. Iona shaped who I am, and this keeps that family alive.
