Loyola is a Catholic school where admission is open to all, irrespective of caste and creed. There is an atmosphere of friendship, understanding, care and support that pervades in the school community of parents, pupils and educators. There is no distinction whatever among the school's clientele comprising pupils from all sections of society. Excellence in every aspect of education is aimed at. It is not in competition with others, but with oneself, and in cooperation with others that this excellence is achieved.

About LOBA (The Loyola Old Boys' Association)
25 years of existence. More than 800 members. The initial efforts of Jimmy Antony (1969) and friends have been carried on by successive teams of office-bearers.
The Executive Committee meets regularly (once a month, or once in two months) to plan and operationalise programmes. Every year, the OBA organises an Inter-School Quiz (Oct/Nov), and Inter-House Quiz (Oct/Nov), assists regional chapters in arranging annual meets, gives trophies to Loyola students who excel in academics, sports and extra-curricular activities, and felicitates staff members and outgoing students.
Once in two years, a medical camp is organised. Atleast two newsletters are published every year. Membership directory is also brought out (usually once in two years).
In 1999-2000, a 'Back to School' programme was arranged for the first time. The year also saw the revival of the Regional Chapter at Bangalore. Another highlight of the year was the hosting of the VIth South Zone Jesuit Alumni/ae Congress.
Report of activities, and financial accounts are presented at the Annual General Body Meeting, usually held in June/July. Office-bearers for the following year are also elected at this meeting.
LOBA is an active charter member of the 'Federation of Jesuit Alumni/Ae Associations of India' and has hosted the Southern Province Jesuit Alumni/Ae Association Forum Meet, in 1993 and 2000, at Loyola campus, Trivandrum.

Nostalgia (School Anthem)
Cheer Loyola's sons
Cheer till the day is done
Till the game is won
For our school
As her banners soar
Let the echoes roar
Round the Golden shore
Of India's rule
(chorus)
{Virtue shielding us
Knowledge for our weapon
Onward Onward Loyola's sons
Let us march a-singing
send the echoes ringing
Giving our best till the day is done}
Cheer till the day is done
Till the game is won
For our school
As her banners soar
Let the echoes roar
Round the Golden shore
Of India's rule
(chorus)
{Virtue shielding us
Knowledge for our weapon
Onward Onward Loyola's sons
Let us march a-singing
send the echoes ringing
Giving our best till the day is done}
The spirit of St. Ignatius of Loyola
Education of youth is in the very life-blood of the Jesuits - The Society of Jesus. Loyola School was started by the Jesuits of Kerala Province, in 1961. Following the centuries old Jesuit tradition in the field of education, Loyola School aims at the total and integral development of the pupil, in terms of intellectual, emotional, social, cultural, physical, aesthetic, moral, spiritual and religious dimensions of the individual. Such a person is at the service of his fellow-beings, especially of the most deprived and marginalised fellow-beings.
