The Wolmer’s Trust has awarded first place in its 300th anniversary logo competition to alum Leon Robinson, Wolmer’s Boys’ School Class of 2002.

The competition was launched ahead of the 300th anniversary in 2029 and invited the wider Wolmer’s community to submit designs that capture the schools’ legacy and a vision for the future.

A competitive field

Fourteen entrants submitted 25 designs. The judges recorded that the standard was remarkably high. Each entry, the Trust said, showed a thoughtful reading of the school’s legacy and of the 300th anniversary. The panel commended every participant for imagination, effort and pride in their alma mater. Leon’s design distinguished itself above the rest and received the recognition of the selection panel and the trustees.

The winner

Leon Robinson left Upper Sixth Form in 2004 and took a Bachelor of Arts in Business Management and International Relations at the University of Technology. He has since worked in strategic marketing, branding and web development. The Trust said that experience is visible in the winning design, which will serve as a defining symbol of the 300th anniversary celebrations.

The prize

In recognition of the winning design he was awarded a cash prize of JA$150,000.00.

Congratulations

The Wolmer’s Trust congratulated Leon Robinson on the honour, and said the work will be associated with this chapter in the schools’ history.
