Each gold medallist had the post box in their home town painted gold in recognition of their achievement.
Have a look at this local post box:

This one can be found in Hamble, the home town of Dani King who won a gold medal for her achievement in the velodrome as one third of the women's cycling pursuit team.
As a symbol of Oakwood's dedication to the Olympic legacy and our continuing commitment to living the Olympic Values, our Christmas post box has had a golden makeover and we have launched it on 12/12/12!
It can be found in the entrance hall from today until the end of term.
