The first in person IC after two years virtually do to COVID. It was great to be together in person, it was a great success. I&#8217;m looking forward to bigger and better things next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So it was an early wake up on Sunday morning. I scrambled around getting all my things together and bringing my car over. I managed to get everything packed and loaded in my car with enough time to check out right before I had to head over for the closing ceremony. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The closing ceremony was a closing ceremony, fairly long and only mildly interesting. I think sometimes closing ceremonies can be harder because you know they mean the end of a fun event and you don&#8217;t want to celebrate the end. The highlight was probably getting to see the Kambala middle &amp; senior teams perform their action plan presentations &#8211; as they both one their divisions they got to perform them at the closing ceremony which was cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Australia had some good results, which was great to see. I&#8217;ve put a list at the bottom of the post if you&#8217;re interested. At the conclusion of the ceremony I hung around a bit, I was down to help backup but I don&#8217;t think Was very useful. I chatted to a few people, then decided it was time for me to head to y AirBnB in Boston. After a quick stop at Walmart to make use of the bathrooms I headed off to Boston and arrived without incident, though it did take a few laps to find parking. The rooms was good, it&#8217;s occurring to me now that I should have taken pictures of my accommodation, I&#8217;ll try and do that from now on. I was hungry, very tired and had a headache (first symptoms even if I didn&#8217;t recognise them at the time). So I went for an early dinner of pizza and chicken which I walked down and got. It was good, but I&#8217;m still not sold on potato on a pizza&#8230; Then it was time for an early night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.simon.treadgold.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/closing.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.simon.treadgold.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/closing-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-144\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simon.treadgold.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/closing-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.simon.treadgold.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/closing-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.simon.treadgold.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/closing-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.simon.treadgold.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/closing-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.simon.treadgold.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/closing.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>The flags leaving at the end of the closing ceremony.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Australia IC Results:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Australian students have achieved some incredible results at the FPSP 2022 International Competition.
