Alastair Hector, former Headmaster of George Heriot’s School.

“I remember Chris very well from Heriot's and have always thought of him as an admirable Herioter.  He was a terrific representative of an able and hard-working year group from which he went to notable academic success at Cambridge, and a great contributor to school life.  I have a picture in my mind of him coming off the field at the end of a particularly hard rugby match at Goldenacre, covered in mud but with his typical smile shining through despite the slog it had been.  His prowess in General Knowledge is well documented in the Herioter magazine and I am reminded with pleasure of the Senior School shows in which he made such an impact later on in his school career.”
