Each month the college recognises a student who has done something exceptional; Livia Tverdun has been chosen as Student of the Month for December.

Livia was nominated for this award by Sandra Rowley, Head of Division for Languages. Livia, from Moldova, joined the International Foundation programme in September, following the Business, Management and Economics pathway, intending to go to university in 2010. Since her arrival she has played a full part in college life. Not only is she an excellent student, but she is making the most of the opportunities to join extra curricular activities. In particular she has become a volunteer and helped out at the recent college Open Evening, despite English being her second language. She is a competent student representative of her tutor group, aware of the responsibility of her role, and has been suggested as a member of the new Learning Centre user group. She quietly helps her peers when help is needed. Livia has achieved such a lot in a short space of time and has been so willing and prepared to give to the college community.
