Carla Took's family paid tribute to the "perfect daughter"

Special assemblies have been held on Monday at a school in Suffolk to remember three teenagers who died in a road crash early on Saturday morning.

Driver Claire Rebecca Stoddart, 18, her sister Jennifer 15, and Carla Took, 18, all from Lowestoft, Suffolk, were in a Vauxhall Astra.

It collided with a Renault Laguna on the A12 at Blythburgh, killing Simon Bonner, 40, from Yoxford, Suffolk.

The three girls went to the Benjamin Britten High School in Lowestoft.

Trevor Osborne, head teacher at the school, described the teenagers as "wonderful children".

"The three girls were outstanding students, two of whom were in the sixth form, had finished their 'A' Levels and were expecting to go to university this summer," he said.

Mr Osborne described the three girls as "wonderful"

He said the girls had very supportive and loving families and very good friends who had known them for many years and it was "an enormous loss".

Carla Took's family said in a statement: "Carla was the perfect daughter with so many friends.

"All that knew her loved her."

The three teenagers were returning home from a Red Hot Chilli Peppers' concert in Ipswich when the accident happened.

Four other people are in hospital with serious injuries.
