Warwick Academy head girl Claire Conyers took home the top prize at the weekend’s Outstanding Teen awards.

Speaking after winning the Overall Outstanding Teen award, she told The Royal Gazette: “It feels absolutely amazing. I’m just really, really lucky to have been given this opportunity and to have been nominated. I cannot put it into words. It’s a really great feeling.”

Claire also won the female academic and female leadership categories, making her the first person to win in all of the three categories she was nominated in.

In addition to taking part in global leadership conferences and serving as the head girl at Warwick Academy, Claire has managed to score nine A* in her GCSEs and placed in the top 1 per cent in the International Baccalaureate programme.

She said she intended to continue her education in September by going to medical school in either England or Ireland, before eventually bringing her skills back to Bermuda.

Asked if there was any particular area of medicine she wanted to focus on, she said: “I’m still keeping my options open. Maybe something in urgent care or anaesthesiology. Everything appeals to me.

“I guess I’ll figure out in medical school what I like the most.”

A record 124 students from the island’s public and private schools were nominated for the 33rd Annual Outstanding Teen Award.

Claire was just one of 18 students who were honoured at the awards on Saturday.

Berkeley Institute student Nia Dailey was the only other nominee to take home multiple trophies on Saturday, winning awards for both community service and performing arts.

Krysten Burrows and Liam Peniston were also honoured for their academic achievements and leadership respectively, while Josiah Smith won the males award for community service and both Ceannda Barrington and Joshua Santucci-Smith were recognised for their perseverance.

Meanwhile, Celine Morton and Timothy Claude recognised for visual arts, Cathal Ryne received an award for performing arts and both Channa James and Ayo-Oluwa Salawa were honoured for vocational arts.

Sophia Hamilton and Jordon-Simmons Trott won the award for spiritual leadership, while Sydney Mason and Tyler Smith were honoured for their athletic contributions and Christalee Woolridge and Rollin Nathan Jr were each won an award for having the most progress.
