They have now turned their focus to entering university, starting a trade or moving straight into the workforce,” Ms Grace said. Ms Grace said the top award of Outstanding Academic Achiever went to Maya Lamont who attended Indooroopilly State High School. Maya received a certificate, trophy, and $5000. “Maya’s extraordinary Year 12 results placed her ahead of more than 51,000 of her peers,” Ms Grace said. “She achieved exceptionally highly in all her school subjects, the Queensland Core Skills Test, tertiary entrance ranking, and in a philosophy subject at university. “Maya hopes to work in environmental law or government in the future and advocate for causes she’s passionate about. “This year Maya will study Arts and law at The University of Queensland. “I congratulate Maya and commend the wonderfully supportive learning environment at Indooroopilly State High School that helped her to flourish.” QCAA chief executive officer Chris Rider said the awards highlighted the strength of senior schooling in Queensland. “The award winners attended 23 different state and non-state schools,” Mr Rider said.
