Forever Tied to Heriot's!

Maurice proudly shows off his Heriot's tie!
Maurice proudly shows off his Heriot's tie!

The Development Team was delighted to be joined by Former Pupil Maurice (Gilbert) McIlwrick (1947) at our recent Coffee Morning. Maurice very proudly wore his 1890 – 1990 Heriot’s tie for the occasion and enjoyed looking through past editions of The Herioter.  

Maurice brought a smile to all our faces entertaining the team with memories of his school days and a very interesting tale of a mysterious tunnel that runs underneath the school.  

We are always thrilled to have Former Pupils back to visit and will be hosting a series of regular Coffee mornings, the next of which will be Wednesday 31st May. If you are interested in attending, please follow this link, or contact the Development Team on dev@george-heriots.com. or by calling us on 0131 221 6716.
