Senior Phase Student of the Year | Ryu Hernandez

Ryu (17) from Auldearn studied Preparation for Uniformed and Emergency Services while attending college every Friday as a Nairn Academy senior pupil.

Ryu said: “I have very much enjoyed my time at UHI Inverness as I have found the courses to be an enjoyable and informative experience. So much so I have progressed onto the full-time course at UHI Inverness.”

He was nominated by his lecturer Robert Boyd who said Ryu was a great ambassador for his school and gave 100 per cent every day at college, and his relaxed but professional attitude made it seem effortless.

Robert said: “Ryu has a great personality and a good mindset, which has led him to have a very good skill set. He settled into the course extremely well and almost without any problems managed to win the hearts and minds of his peer group.  He passed all four units with ease and along the way encouraged others to work to their best potential.”
