The Trustees of St John’s Hospital Educational Foundation hosted their Annual Blue Boy Awards at the Bishop’s Palace on the evening of Tuesday 2 December. The Trustees are pleased to record their congratulations to the five recipients of the 2025 Blue Boy Awards.

The students were a credit to their tutors, parents and, above all, to themselves. The awards recognise not academic achievement, but the exceptional extracurricular contributions the students have made within their respective schools. These included significant charitable fundraising initiatives, as well as providing both emotional and practical support to their peers.

The Trustees continue to recognise the high standards maintained by their Partner Schools, and particularly the staff who work tirelessly to support and develop such well-rounded students.

The students receiving awards were:

Finn Mulcahy – St Peter’s High School
Wilfred Blackshaw – Exeter School
Katy Ryan – The Maynard School
Laurentiu Constantinescu – Exeter College
Eve Andrew – St Luke’s High School

Each student was accompanied by their Headteacher or a member of their Senior Leadership Team, who presented a citation highlighting the student’s contribution to their school community. The five recipients were exceptional role models, and the Trustees wish them every success in their future endeavours.

Finn Mulcahy - St Peter's School
Wilfred Blackshaw - Exeter School
Katy Ryan - Maynard School
Laurentiu Constantinescu – Exeter College
