Lanimer Champion 2008
Jack Quinn (Lanark Grammar School)

Fifteen year old Jack Quinn, from the Third Year at
Lanark Grammar School, is this year's Lanimer Champion. He has a big
brother, Martin, a little brother, Campbell, and a little sister, Molly.
Jack plays football and admits to being a good goalkeeper. Like many, he
would like to take up this role professionally, but has a career in
Information Technology in his mind, just in case.
Jack is making Lanimer history this year, not only
through being included among the brochure principals for the first time,
but also being photographed on horseback. When he and his mother, Julie,
found out this was going to happen it was hard to tell who was more
excited! We hope you will agree this move has been a good idea and that
Jack has proved to be a great choice with whom to set this precedent.
Our thanks go to Ex-Lord Cornet Danny McGuinness and
his daughter Vicky, who gave their time to help us set up the
photograph. Nor would we wish to forget 'Poppy', their adorable mare,
who made everyone welcome and was a real 'lady' on the day.
