Student of the year is aiming sky high

West Exe’s current student of the year is aiming high during her last year at secondary school.

Camille Murray won the school’s 2016 student of the year award, also gaining a certificate for a hundred percent attendance throughout her time at West Exe.

The award has given Camille, 15, the inspiration to excel in everything she does. The student is keen to enrol on Exeter College’s Flybe course next September.

“I want to travel the world and be paid for it,” she said.

The fifteen-year-old has always loved visiting new places, Camille said: “The job will combine my love of travelling and helping people.”

The aspiring cabin crew member received the student of the year award for her fantastic attitude towards learning and exceeding targets in every subject.

Camille was shocked when she discovered she won. “It was embarrassing getting up in front of everyone, but I was very pleased as it’s a huge award,” she said.

Family of the outstanding student believe her success is down to her ability, effort and talent. During the awards evening, the student also won awards for her achievements and efforts in subjects including French, maths and geography.
