We are saddened to share the news that Jolyon Booth (Former Staff, 1968-1980) has passed away.  

Jolyon was known as an exceptional Mathematics teacher - and so much more - during his time at Kelly.  A tribute was made to him on his departure from the School in the summer of 1980:

"Jolyon Booth, one-time professional actor, has made his mark in one brilliant drama production after another, in his very hard work in charge of the library, of careers, of examinations, and of our first computer, while few of us will forget his work in support of his wife's major role in Oxfam - or his distinguished readings on Founder's Day and in Chapel".

A celebration of Jolyon's life will take place at Salle Church,The Street, Salle, Norwich NR10 4SD  at 11am on Thursday 20 March.
