The McIlheron Trophy is held annually is in memory of former pupil Colin McIlheron. 

“Herby” was well known for his sporting prowess.  He was senior athletics champion and was part of the 2006 u16 football team which won the Scottish Cup.  His main attributes were his overall stamina and determination which made him an all round athlete who excelled in a number of sports. 

In light of these attributes, the school and Colin’s family felt it fitting the trophy presented in his honour should be awarded to an athlete who showed similar characteristics.  The trophy is therefore competed for in a gruelling “Iron Man” event involving a 400m swim, agility course, followed by a 4km run.  The best cumulative time over all 3 disciplines is pronounced the winner.  

The 2013 winner was Alexander Leventakis, winning the trophy for the 2nd year in a row. 

The school would like to thank Colin’s father, Herby for his continued support of the event.  He again attended the competition and the prizegiving this year.
