Xenia achieved excellent academic results; gaining a 9 in German, 8s in Mathematics, Biology, and Chemistry, and a 7 in Physics. In addition, she completed the Cambridge Exam (CAE) at C1 level, missing the C2 distinction by just two points. She joined RHS in Year 11 in 2024 for a single academic year and accomplished all of the above during that time! 

During her time at the school, Xenia was awarded the Diamond Award and also took part in the RHS Advanced Spelling Bee. Beyond academics, she explored a wide range of interests.  

She took up new sports such as kickboxing, gym training, girls’ rugby, and sailing, while continuing with swimming and horse riding. She played the tenor saxophone in the marching band, sang in the chapel choir, and joined the CCF in the RAF section. She also enjoyed baking, especially making brownies. 

Looking ahead, Xenia has returned to Germany to complete the Abitur, with core subjects in Mathematics, Biology, and English. She plans to study medicine at university with the goal of becoming a doctor. 

Congratulations, Xenia!
