Children's Jumble Sale – Saint-Joseph School (Lyon 7th)

A community jumble sale for the children of the 7th

The Saint-Joseph school jumble sale is a family event organized by the APE École Saint-Joseph in Lyon's 7th arrondissement. Primarily dedicated to children's items, it welcomes sellers offering clothing (ages 0-14), shoes, toys, board games, soft toys, children's books, baby equipment and junior sports items. In the spirit of Christian solidarity that animates the Saint-Joseph school community, this event is also an opportunity to build bonds between the school's families and neighbourhood residents. Proceeds fund educational projects, school trips and cultural activities for the pupils.

The 7th arrondissement, between student quarter and village atmosphere

Lyon's 7th arrondissement is one of the most diverse and vibrant arrondissements in the city. Located on the left bank of the Rhône, south of the peninsula, it encompasses neighbourhoods with very distinct characters: La Guillotière, a cosmopolitan and commercial crossroads; the Jean Macé neighbourhood, animated by student life and its many cafés and restaurants; Gerland, undergoing major urban transformation with its research laboratories, stadium and new residences; and the Chartreux area, more residential and family-oriented. This mix of populations — students, families, scientists, craftspeople — gives the 7th a unique and dynamic identity within Lyon.
