TROPHIES Presented During the Trophies Assembly FOREWORD is is not a history of prizes and awards, or even an account of every one issued today. I have attempted to cover most which have been awarded recently, but would welcome any amendments or further information, especially regarding those about which we know very little. is Trophies Assembly would not have been possible without the generosity of people associated with Watson’s over the years. As we progress through the twenty-first century, we continue to seek donors who can help to ensure that a Watson’s education is of the highest standard and is accessible to pupils irrespective of financial background. For more information on supporting the important work of the George Watson’s Family Foundation, please contact the Development Office.
