She said that she had cherished the social side of her school life the most.
"I enjoyed the social aspects of school the most, and I was quite musically involved and I really enjoyed being in the orchestra."
Camp is expected to go on exchange to Spain in 2017 to immerse herself in the culture for a gap year.
"The whole purpose is learning Spanish and learning another culture and broadening my world view," Camp said.
She hopes to study medicine on her return.
"I have applied to do medicine and I am hoping for UCT (the University of Cape Town). I am looking for a job where I can help other people, and I am hoping that would be a rewarding path to follow," she said.
