In 1902, Smith was killed in a buggy accident, and Wilson assumed full ownership of the school.
There had been private all girls schools operating in Albury during this period, 'Glenair' and 'Albury Ladies College'.
The Cadet unit and Band adopted the Gordon Tartan and the Glengarry as its uniform, which in 1965 was worn in public for the first time.
In 2014, the band made its first international trip, performing at the Jakarta Highland Gathering where it was crowned South East Asian Champions in the Juvenile grade.
In October 2014, the band travelled to Canberra for the 2014 ACT Championships where it was crowned champions in the grade 4 competition.
The pipe band played a major role in the celebrations, organising a highland gathering and tattoo.
The event drew over 4,000 people and included the sights and sounds of pipe bands, highland dancing, clan tents, kilted warriors and a delicious selection of food.
A prestigious invitation to attend The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo in 2017 was grasped by the band.
The event is held each August as part of the Edinburgh Festival and it is viewed live by around 220,000 spectators each year and attracts a global television audience of over 100 million people.
The remarkable World Championship effort was accomplished by a mix of alumni, current students (some as young as 12 years old!)
Whilst securing this victory, the band was also involved in a 26-performance schedule at the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.
This year’s Tattoo ran with the colourful theme, Stories, and played host to a stunning array of performers from all points of the compass.
