Nathan Twaddle

How lucky were we to have an Olympian visit us? We have been writing about being an Olympic athlete and wondering just how it must feel to compete and actually win a medal for your country. Nathan was able to report that it felt amazing when he won a medal and that it was many years of hard work and determination that got him there. All middle syndicate students had many fantastic questions for Nathan. Nathan left us with a friendly reminder that if you have dreams about being an Olympian, always keep your goals in sight and never give up. We are fortunate to be Goodwood Explorers!
