Above : Kilwinning Academy building, pre-1977
In the long term, the school would like to purchase a Dux board in order to commemorate the hard work and academic achievement of our students , although at this time finances do not permit us to do so.
Therefore, we have created a ‘virtual’ Dux board on the website and have identified as many previous Kilwinning Academy Dux winners as possible.
Below is the list of Kilwinning Academy Dux Medallists from 1981, when the first Dux Medal of the Fifth Year was awarded. We have no name/s for 1983, as yet.
Spelling of some pupils’ names may be incorrect, because we have been unable to access an official record, so please let us know if this is the case.
Our school librarian Mrs Black, has painstakingly put together the list of names. We are very grateful for all of her time and effort in doing so. Some information was acquired from local newspapers and school reports.
