Published Mon 21 Jul 2025
Rowing NSW is deeply saddened to learn of the tragic passing of Year 12 student Stirling Heriot over the weekend.
Stirling was a much-admired young man and a valued member of the NSW rowing community, competing as part of The King's School's 2nd IV crew. He was known for his warmth, kindness, and strong sense of community – qualities that left a lasting impression on those who knew him. His commitment to rowing, and to all areas of school life, reflected a deep sense of dedication, generosity, and quiet strength.
The thoughts of the entire Rowing NSW community are with Stirling’s family, friends, teammates, and school community at this incredibly difficult time. We extend our heartfelt condolences.
