Year 12

PUTNEY HOUSE – BUILT ON PATIENCE…PRESENCE… PASSION Well, what a year 2020 turned out to be. The untimely arrival of a global pandemic commonly referred to as COVID-19 turned everything on its head for a while. As the world scrambled to fight off this modern-day bug, Ignatius Park College played its part by closing its doors for several weeks in Term 2. For the first time in College history, students and staff engaged in online teaching and learning from home. A massive thank you to all staff and parents for the role they played in ensuring that the ongoing education of our young men remained steadfast and true. Congratulations also to our student body, including those in the mighty Putney House for buying into this transition and coming out stronger and more resilient on the other side. Surely our House namesake, Bishop Michael Putney, was looking over us all, keeping us safe and out of harm’s way. Our 2015 Year 7s who first walked through the gates six years ago graduated recently, leaving the College formally for the last time. They now become immersed in the history of the College, adding their names to the perpetual list of IPC Old Boys. Congratulations to you all. There were also several students from this year level who would have graduated in 2020 at IPC. However, for a variety of reasons they had moved on before finishing their Senior year. These students included Jude Mitchell, Tom Kelly, Liam Barber, Ethan Cameron, Alex Colley, Reegan Gileppa, Xavier Hooper, Tom Huxley, Riley Musumeci, Ethan Ramsbotham, Cooper Adair, Boaden GuicaSegal, Jin Torrington, Jack McInnes, Fred Nawarie, Japheth Mundraby and Quintus Smit. The Putney House inducted its Senior leaders in 2020 with Evan Corradini (Putney House Captain) and Zachary Judge (Putney House Vice Captain) being presented with their leadership badges at the opening Mass by College Principal, Mr Shaun Clarke. Congratulations to you both and thank you for your hard work and support throughout the year. The pre-COVID era saw the IPC Swimming Carnival go ahead as per normal. Our free-spirited “Hippy” theme brought plenty of colour to the day and for the first time in history, the Putney House stood proudly on the podium finishing in 3rd place overall behind Baillie and Rice. A special mention must go to our Open Medley relay team who claimed their 6th victory in six years, remaining undefeated in this event throughout their time at the College. Congratulations to Tom Carey, Joel Stevens, Kyle Robinson and Nicholas Pearce on this outstanding achievement.

The Athletics Carnival was held in early Term 3 with a slightly adjusted program to accommodate the new post-COVID vernacular – “social distancing.” The Putney House embraced a “beach” theme this year and a fun day was had by all. No podium finish, but a gutsy performance from the House in what was a massive day for all. The Cross Country was also held in Term 3. Another glowing endorsement of the work that goes into securing a holistic education for the students at IPC. Post-COVID, it would have been easy for Mr Alloway and his team to put this event (and the Athletics Carnival, mind you) into the “too hard” basket. However, risk assessments were adjusted, COVID-safe protocols were implemented and we were good to go. As a result, we all got to experience another great spectacle at IPC this year. Congratulations to Isaac Mayo on winning the 16 years race. In the middle school, it was Lincoln Burrowes (3rd) and Aiden Masatto (4th) who were the shining lights for the House. For the record, it was a 5th place finish for the Putney House in 2020. Last year we also recognised and announced the winner of the 2019 Putney House “Young Silverback of the Year” Award. This prestigious award went to Riley Innes (Year 9 at the time) and was presented by Father Rod Ward. Riley now enters the senior school in 2021. He continues to set a wonderful example to the House in terms of his respect, humility and passion for the College. At the time of print, the 2020 recipient had not been announced. On behalf of the Putney Silverbacks, I would also like to acknowledge the ongoing contribution and extend a special thank you to the following Putney Homeroom staff for their efforts in 2020: Mr Gary Hughes, Mr Andrew Hodgson, Ms Katrina Guazzo, Mr Matthew Johnson, Mrs Alyssa Deer, Ms Rebecca Irvine, Ms Carolynne Gould-Stasse, Ms Denise Weightman, Mr Drew Thompson, Mr Steve Lansley, Mr Len Farren and Mr Stephen Robertson. Thank you all for your support and professionalism throughout the year. I would also like to acknowledge and thank all parents and guardians for their support throughout 2020. To all Putney students, you are the custodians of a House and culture that will continue to grow and prosper long after you have left the College for the final time. Be a part of it now and set positive standards for those younger to follow. I say this every year because I am passionate about the collective legacy you will all leave if you stay the course and trust us in what we do here.

Enjoy your holidays and take the time to give your parents or significant other a big hug and a thank you for the many opportunities they have afforded you this year. See you all back on deck in 2021. John Fuller | Pastoral Leader - Putney
