We were delighted to welcome Helen Muirhead who has kindly donated the Iris Lawlor Award in memory of her mother who was one of the first students at the College in the 1930s. Ilinca received the award at last year’s Prizegiving ceremony where we celebrated so many student achievements.
Helen Muirhead also attended St. Francis’ College and she enjoyed having lunch in the same place where she had eaten when she was in the Prep School. With their strong pharmaceutical and engineering background, she and her husband are kindly offering to support our Science department to expand what we offer to our students in terms of information and practical guidance for STEM careers. We are all very excited about this further collaboration.
