Yesterday it was the Carlton School Olympics closing ceremony, that's when they hand out the medals to the people that got a gold, and for the people with second and thrird place you got a ribbon or a certificate. I got a gold in sprints because I am super fast and in vortex, I picked up a second place, it was just too hard to beat Cole because he has a strong arm. The gold medals were made out of wood and they were spray painted gold then they put a sticker saying Carlton School Olympics, you're a champion.
There was a special guest coming to hand out the gold medals, she was an Olympic athlete. Her name was Phillipa Baker Hogan. She placed fourth in the womans double skulls rowing final just one place away from a bronze. That was in 1992. She also went to the Olympics in 1996 and got 6th in the womans double sculls final.
Over all I think every body did their best and I felt proud because I got a gold and silver medal.
