EDITOR'S NOTE

MrShingirai Rondozai

Welcome to the 2021 edition of the Tribute. This edition is very special in a number of ways. For
starters, this edition comes after a hiatus of two years. The hiatus was COVID-19 induced. Most of
our contributors were cooped up in many private homes across the country.

It is also the first edition since the College changed its status. Of course, during the COVID-19
induced lockdown, the College went on with its activities. Learning and teaching, albeit by
different methods, went on. Our hope is that you are going to share with us our hopes and
aspirations as you go through the Tribute.

The Tribute Committee is grateful to the Administration for the massive support. I would also like
to personally thank members of the Tribute Committee for their dedication and sacrifice as they
worked through the yearbook. Special thanks also go to Br Mario for his patience and generosity
with his time.

Good reading and viewing.

 St Ignatius College
Tucked high behind rolling hills with
spectacular aerial views, St Ignatius is a hub
that houses some of the brightest young minds
in the country and philanthropists. It was and is
home to young men and women who are bent on
being women and men for others.
The College boasts of being one of the most
prestigious schools in Zimbabwe with an
impeccable record in both academic and co-
curricular activities. It is not just another school,
but a mould. It forms and builds all-rounded
students who can be leaders and prototypical
members of society. Better still, the alumni of
the College are proof that the Hilltop is not just
a place, but an institution that develops
resourceful and goal-oriented people.
The School breathes in the "Ignatian" spirit.
They say, “Once an Ignatian, always an
Ignatian." But what is an Ignatian? An Ignatian
is any student or product of the College current
or past who draws inspiration from the teachings
and principles of St Ignatius of Loyola founder
of the Society of Jesus. This is animated in what
is called Ignatian Spirituality.
In this, lies the beauty of being an Ignatian
because there is witnessing and testament of the
friendships forged among strangers that last for
a lifetime because being Ignatian is just but
contagious!
4
It is a privilege to be part of friendships that
bloom into a brotherhood and sisterhood.
There's nothing like witnessing the display of
affection and unity among students when
school teams play. There is nothing like the
vibe that wows you and tugs at your soul
until you flow with it. Walk over to the
school hall and you will find the Marimba
team perfecting the tempo to their vibes, take
a stroll to the music room and the jazz band
will just mesmerize you the same way.
Ask anyone who has been part of the
Ignatian crowd at any given time and they
will tell you how being Ignatian is something
a dictionary cannot define. Let alone on a
Sunday, going for mass and being there in
the chapel brings an enchanting spiritual
communion that makes one feel you are part
of one big extended family.
Words fall short. Allow me to say being at
the Hilltop is not being in a place but the
beginnings of a great journey. I am grateful
and privileged to have been afforded the
opportunity to be part of a legacy initiated by
Father Ford in 1962. It is a magical journey
where memories and lived experiences of
past students and the present make indelible
marks of excellence in an individual endowed
with conscience, compassion, competence
and commitment!

FROM THE RECTOR’S DESK
Prof. Fr Lawrence Daka SJ (Rector)
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced an
unprepared world to think outside the
box to remain relevant within
education sector. At St Ignatius College
we have not been an exception. Still in
our infancy as an independent institution
and with inadequate resources, we had to
learn how to run before we learned to
walk. The brand we represent was and is
still too sweet for us to rest on our
laurels!
We have learned that education is no
longer as we knew it pre-COVID-19. It
must be a hybrid of online and physical
instruction.
Needless to say, there were
skeptics who attempted to
spanners into the wheels of the new
wagon. Some advocated for waiting until
the pandemic passed so that education
can be carried out as it was before!
Others warned against waiting because
time would never wait for us!
5
The bottom line is that the pandemic has
taught us a new way of teaching and
learning. Never again shall we conduct
education in the way we did pre-COVID-19.
I applaud the heroic intervention of our
parents who believed and supported our
initiatives. Our teaching and none teaching
staff this year worked without a meaningful
break as we moved from one lockdown into
face-to-face teaching and soon back into
another lockdown. Teachers braved long
hours of learning skills that would help
them conveniently teach learners online.
Many of our learners also quickly
understood that education is about them and
not a luxury they can dump at the parents
and guardians’ doorsteps!
the I am grateful to the Board of Governors for
their leadership and commitment to the
mission of the College and the functioning
SDC for partnering with us as we forged
ahead as a team!
This year we launched two jubilee
celebrations that are running until mid-
2022:
1. Ignatian Year: On 20 May 2021 the
universal Society of Jesus (Jesuits)
launched the 500th anniversary year of
the injury that led to the conversion of
St Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the
many Jesuits. The theme of the Ignatian Year
throw is: “To see all things new in Christ.”
The year will run until 31 July 2022. It
is a celebration that we invite all who
are members of the Ignatian family to
embrace and deepen their commitments.
We launched our version of the Ignatian
year on 23 May 2021 with jubilation
within the confines of COVID-19
operating procedures.

HEADMASTER’S REPORT

The ever-changing world has opened our

minds to not only provide our learners with
resources that bring out the best of their
potential but also take them through a
formation of men and women who are able to
transform the world and make an impact in the
lives of the disadvantaged.
Father Hans Kolvenbach SJ averred that
during their formation, students must learn the
gritty reality of this world into their lives so
that they can learn to feel it, think about it
critically, respond to its suffering and engage
it constructively. He further opined that they
should learn to perceive, think, judge, choose
and act for the rights of others especially the
disadvantaged and oppressed.

Community extends a warm welcome to
the new staff.
The College makes history this year as we
administer the maiden Cambridge
examinations starting this October. Our
dual approach of in-person and online
learning has enabled us to adequately
cover the syllabi, particularly for the
examination classes- Forms 4, 5 and 6. The
rigorous coaching has exposed
prepared the classes to the demands of the
final examinations. We are confident that
our 2021 candidates will make us proud by
posting excellent results synonymous with
our brand.
The Zimsec ‘A’ level pass rate for last
year stands at 96% and our ‘O’ Level pass
rate is at 98.5%. Our diligent teachers are
geared to surpass these pass rates in the
Cambridge examinations this year.

Our Form 4 class sat for Shona with Zimsec and
again we are confident that they will also excel
as they were thoroughly coached for these
examinations. We have high hopes that their
the performance will exceed that of last year.
The interactive smartboards and projectors
recently installed in all the classrooms and some
laboratories ushers in an innovative learning
experience that makes the classroom practice
enjoyable and memorable. The employment of
the 21st century learning and teaching
of methodologies is in sync with our goal to
produce learners who can make an impact in the
new world. This is congruent with a famous Chinese
proverb which goes “Tell me, and I'll forget.
Show me, and I may remember. Involve me, and
I'll understand.”
To our Upper Six learners, go out there and set
the world on fire. It is not how educated you
have become that will define you, but your
ability to show that you have learned how to
learn. Be distinct as an Ignatian will always be.
Au revoir. To all the other learners, revere the
developments that have occurred at this
institution- your home away from home. Take
care of everything as you are the owners of this
College. 100% is not good enough, once an
Ignatian, always an Ignatian.
and
Finally, I wish to commend the teaching staff for
their unrelenting dedication to duty creditable
for the excellent results in the 2020 public
examinations. In equal measure, I am indebted
to our key stakeholders, particularly our parents
and guardians, the SDC and the Board of
Governprs for the unwavering support in these
difficult times. I cherish the unity we have all
demonstrated for the good of our school.

FROM THE ADMINISTRATOR’S DESK
“ADAPT OR DIE”

Hardly three months into 2020, the

COVID-19 pandemic struck at our doorstep
and the country followed the world into the
new normal. The College had to adapt to
this new normal which changed life as we
knew it and with far reaching changes in
education, business and how we socialise.
The past two years have taught us that
indeed “the only constant in life is change”
(Heraclitus). It has been a period of
significant and multiple changes and our
stakeholders have done well to adapt.

 CHAPLAINCY IN TIME OF CRISIS:
11
DOING EVERYTHING FOR GOD’S GLORY
At Saint Ignatius College, being a Catholic and Jesuit
School, the chaplaincy is not just an office or
department. It is one of the important apostolates that
support the apostolate of education, providing to
learners and staff spiritual and moral encouragement
and counselling, spreading the Word of God and
becoming the bridge between the staff members and the
Executive. The task of being a supporter and the voice
of the voiceless in the school is not always easy. Its
practitioner must continue nourishing himself
spiritually through constant prayer, examination of
conscience and discernment of the spirit.

For almost two years the World has been
living with the COVID-19 pandemic. This
has completely disrupted the normal
chaplaincy activities; in such a way that the
activities which were already planned needed
to be re-planned, to respond to the spiritual,
psychological and moral challenges and
needs of the learners and workers. We looked
at this period as God’s grace period, through
which all of us, learners and staff were
involved in deepening our relationship with
Christ through constant meditation or
contemplation, discernment and examination
of conscience.
During this period, technology became an
important means of communication and
transmission of the word of God. So, with the
collaboration of both learners and staff

provided spiritual, psychological counselling

We also helped them to deepen the Catholic
faith, teaching catechism, celebrating online
masses and sharing Ignatian spirituality as well
as helping the learners to cope with their life in
time of crises, such as the COVID-19 crisis.
It was and is painful to see some of the students
and workers losing their family members and not
be able to go there to comfort them. We prayed
and encouraged all members of the school
community to pray for them and if it was
possible to participate fully in the funeral, to
console the bereaved and pray for the departed.

Through their contributions and supported by
the Chaplaincy, they also paid school fees for
four (4) learners from Saint Peter Claver
Primary School, one of the Jesuit Schools in
Chishawasha. We thank Mr. Nyuke for
motivating the learners to be “men and women
for others”.
Last and not least, we want to thank God, for
calling some dedicated students to Saint Ignatius
College, such as Maxwell Nyasulu, the outgoing
Chapel President and others who worked hard as
sacristans, taking care of the chapel and its
goods. We continue praying for their success in
their life.

stock of what is important, what really matters. As a
boarding community we can be strong and confident
in knowing that in such a busy world, what school
teaches its students is to respect and bring to life all
the values that COVID-19 is trying to take away.

The advent of COVID-19 forced a drastic

change in boarding life. One of the major
changes that has been introduced in boarding
is that all the learners go for temperature
checks in the morning before they go for Mary Ward ladies sharing lighter moments
meals. The temperature checks are done
every morning in individual hostels. Any
learner whose temperature would be above
normal are referred to to the school nurse
for further investigation and management.
We also enforce the wearing of masks and
sanitising in the hostels. The advent of the
COVID-19 pandemic has also meant that we
have limited the contact our learners have
with their families.

MARY WARD AMIDST A PANDEMIC

BY ASHLEY ZINGONI (U6 BIOLOGY)

Meal time at Maryward

For the Mary Ward Ladies (class of
2020/2021), the year started on 8
February 2020. I should think most
ladies can attest to
memorable and pleasant surprise
upon stepping foot at the gates of
Mary Ward Hostel. A group of upper
six ladies would gladly rush to your
vehicle heartily
“Baby!!!!!!”. It was then that you
were introduced to your “school
mother” who would assure your
parents or guardians
daughter was in safe hands.
Days of discovery, learning, fellowship and merry
making would soon unfold. In no time, things
changed, nobody had anticipated such, a gruesome
a treat, and sad reality. The advent of the Coronavirus
abruptly distorted circumstances landing people in
national lockdowns. A cloud of uncertainty enveloped
the world at large. Two things became instantly
popular; masks and sanitisers!
screaming
that their

Next, one would then be ushered

into a room meticulously decorated
and filled with letters of welcome
and advice. This gesture taught and
left an indelible mark of
unconditional love that has sat deep
within me.
The famous Mary Ward fish pond

I missed all the enjoyable
experiences. However for my
colleagues and I, geographic
location, or rather physical
distancing did not matter. We
devised means and kept in touch;
bound together by the love we
share.
I recall how every Wednesday at
2100 we would have ‘Girl Talk’ on
our WhatsApp group. We would
touch on various topics that affect
us as girls, educate one another and
share life experiences to develop
each other. More so, we would also
have prayers and sharing together.
We even talked about our lessons
and the struggles of being an A
level student online.
They say, absence truly does make
the heart grow fonder. Coming back
in October after six months of not
seeing each other was surreal and
electric. Of course, things had
altered, they had to change, we had
a new normal. Wearing of masks,
sanitiser checkpoints everywhere,
arrows for movement in corridors,
daily temperature checks, separate
dining sessions and masses and of
course the unpopular social and
physical distancing!
In as much as we had to adapt to a
new normal some things seldom
change, the unconditional love still
remained.
19
Entering 2021, we kickstarted the
year with another lockdown which
yet again was unforeseen as we all
had the expectation that life would
go back to normal but alas.
However, this did not affect the
coming in of new family members in
the Hostel. We were going to be”
mothers.” As per tradition, we
welcomed our “babies with
unconditional love.” We did this
with a difference. This time online.
We had a google meeting and
created a WhatsApp group to bond
and ensure that the “babies” felt
comfortable and heartily welcomed.
When we eventually got back to
school, the decorating of rooms and
letter writing continued.
Pondering on the two years spent at
St Ignatius and at Mary Ward Hostel
after yet another lockdown, what I
hold dear to me are fond memories
to cherish; discussions by the pond,
humour Thursdays, TV room
shenanigans, courtyard break time
convos, Sunday morning preps, and
so much more! This will surely be
captured moments of history.
My fellow comrades in Mary Ward
Hostel and the Sisters gave me
something I will always appreciate
and I only can say Mary Wards of
2021, go forth and set the world on
fire!!

FORTY SIX YEARS OF SERVICE!

On 15 June 2021 the College bade

farewell to one of the longest serving
members of the College. Mr
Christopher Nyamayaro joined the
College as a young boy on 1 July
1975 and retired on 30 April 2021. To
put it into context that is the period
when the armed struggle was just
beginning to intensify. He had Mr & Mrs Nyamayaro receiving their plaque from the Rector

worked in the College for a

continuous period of forty- six years.

At a farewell luncheon hosted in his

honour many of the speakers
mentioned his humility and respect
for those in authority despite his
advanced years and vast knowledge
of the College’s history. Speaking at
the luncheon , Father Daka SJ, the
Rector, joked that Mr Nyamayaro
should have very important survival
skills for him to have survived so
long in one job. Commitment!

The College presented Mr Nyamayoro

with a plaque by which he will
forever remember the College. At the
same function, the Rector advised Mr
Nyamayaro to be prudent with his
terminal benefits so that he and his
immediate family will survive
comfortably. Fare thee well Mr
Nyamayaro!

ST. IGNATIUS COLLEGE

DISPENSARY

BY SR SALOME MATEKO CJ

The School Dispensary participates fully and is committed to the good health and wellbeing of learners. As
part of its Healing Ministry, provided is care that meets spiritual, social, physical and emotional needs of the
learners.
Assessment to detect early signs and symptoms of health problems is part of the routine. As we all know,
good health is a basic building block of human progress and economic growth. The same applies to learners
who cannot flourish without good health. Poor health does not only hinder good results, but it can be a
source of worry to both teachers and parents. We are grateful to the School Administration for the support
in providing the basic equipment and medicines necessary to ensure our learners are afforded good health
care.
The Dispensary provides Health services not only to learners but all staff who are in need. We are open
every day save for Wednesdays and Sundays.

HEAD PREFECT'S REPORT
. Prefects who managed to groom the Form
Mr.Walter Madondo
The 2021 prefecture holds an all-time record
of the shortest tenure in the school – credit to
the coronavirus that kept the prefecture locked
away from its duties.
The norm is prefects are energetic in the first
half of their tenure but start to underperform in
the last half; hoping to get out of office. This
was not the case for the the 2020-2021 team.
Frequent lockdowns and distance learning gave
us breathers and time outs that we never saw
our duties as exhaustive. All the same, the
pandemic came at the wrong time when the
school had selected completely new and
inexperienced faces from the Junior Associate
Prefects (JAPS) to the senior prefects. It was a
fresh team with fresh ideas in a new territory
of leadership. It was a real challenge.
It was not always smooth sailing. We fell
short when it came to challenging ourselves in
big crowds. Most of the new brooms were not
vocal and thus we shied away from making
important announcements.
However, as our term progressed the team
stepped up to the occasion. We became more
courageous, more assertive and above all, we
served more. The prefects’ camp has turned us
into well-equipped leaders.
29
I am impressed by the Junior Associate
Ones and Twos beyond my expectation. The
Senior Prefects were a joy to work with. Both
ladies and gentlemen showed unity and good
communication and the ability to blend their
different skillsets on different playing fields:
this is leadership. There was a lot of synergy
between the Junior and Senior prefects and
the test of the school creating a well- gelled
up ecosystem of Ignatian.
Junior House exceeded my expectation by
exhibiting cleanliness and absolute respect
and discipline. Moreover, the prefects- in-
charge managed to provide a conducive
environment for Form One and Twos to get
acclimatized to boarding life. Middle House
showed great improvement in punctuality in
observing daily activity times such as the
dining hall.
I thank the Form Fours for
showing great improvement in
discipline.
Senior House continued to
produce the finest gentlemen in the
College.
The Mary Ward ladies co-operated with the
rest of the school as they never missed an
upfield.
As the head prefect of the St Ignatius College
2020-2021, I declare our term a successful
one. To the incoming prefecture: The ball is
in your court.

THE FRUITS WE CANNOT ENJOY
Padya(right) enjoying the new fruits
“There`s no victory without sacrifice” –
Optimus Prime
Like Nicodemus, should we think that we
must “enter a second time into our mothers`
wombs and be born?” just so we can enjoy
the privatised St Ignatius. Certainly not…
Sacrifice comes in many forms. For there is no
victory without sacrifice. Our parents sacrifice
their time and peace so that the next generation
can enjoy the fruits of the hard work done
now. This adage applies to the 2021 upper
Sixth Group.
In 2016 the group complained about the
condition of the school basketball courts. Now
it is all history...The courts are now world-
class. Am I allowed to re-join the College?
Maybe at Form Three…. So that I can enjoy
the world-class tennis courts….
33
We mourned and complained about the
injuries that we faced on old courts. Flesh
was grazed; bones were broken by the
potholes that rested on the playing field but
passion was never lost. How sad that we are
not going to play a single match on these
courts. The fruits we cannot enjoy…
Two years back laptops were considered
illegal among students. Fast-forward to 2021,
they are as common as the monkeys in the
school. Pupils are now doing their
presentations using their laptops and beaming
on smart boards.!
 34

Back in 2016, cold water was the vogue of the
morning. Now…Mornings are a joy. Hot water
is readily available.
“The Bus” was the common name for Middle
House hostels resembling the bus structure
with no partitioning. Just the whole stream in
one big hall. Now.... The Middle House
residents can enjoy a little more privacy and
secrecy with in their portioned and curtained
rooms.
Methylated spirit was part of the school budget
for cleaning these boards. Now… Whiteboards
have just replaced chalkboards. Now lessons
are more interactive with improved visual
learning brought by smart boards.
I guess we will have to leave the developments
for the generation to come. I guess: sometimes
winning is losing. We have shown sheer
selflessness by fighting and pushing for such
developments that others, and yet not us, will
enjoy.
If Mbuya Nehanda did not sacrifice her life and
time for the liberation of this country then an
uprising was impossible. Even if she did not enjoy
the fruits of modern Zimbabwe, we still cherish
her efforts with her statue at the heart of the city.
Maybe the upcoming streams at St Ignatius will
cherish our efforts. Maybe?
The good we cannot enjoy

Mr.Walter Madondo

In 2016, internet was so rare that we crowded

the library for a two-minute surf on the web.
Some knew when they left home that it would
be the last time they would ever hear GOOGLE
unless mentioned by a teacher. Now…One can
extend their learning with internet-based
research. Wikipedia is the new zeitgeist.

Gone are the days when studies were

frequently interrupted by power cuts and
torches were on everyone`s tuck list. …now
it’s all history.
Saturday meals exhibited the lowest turnout of
all other meals and beans trumped meat on the
weekly menu. Now, we have macaroni and
cheese, yoghurt, a soft drink and sometimes
ice-cream! Why should one buy a pie when you
have jacket potatoes and rice at your disposal
in any quantity.

Common sense are not always common dollars


LITERARY ATTEMPTS
IMUNZI WINNING ESSAY
Tittle: How communication barriers between parents and
children affect children's mental health
In humans, communication is the basic mode of
social interaction and the basis of all relations.
Communication is key in that it can alter the
orientation of a person physically and also has a
major impact on a person's psychology. This is
where communication between parents and
children surfaces.
As the saying "Charity begins at home" goes,
communication between parents and their kids
raises children in a socially stable environment
boosting their mental stamina and helping them to
adapt in society. The problem is that parents
rarely have time to talk to their children. The main
reason for this is that most parents grew up in
homes where parents were figures of authority and
punishment. This created a communication abyss
and the tendencies are still prevalent. Some
parents choose to stamp authority and hide behind
hectic career schedules than talk to their children.
This atrocity has crippled the children's mental
health in that a child might be bullied and
traumatized out of their wits but the parents won't
know. This can lead to serious depression and
character degradation in the child causing low self
esteem.
In the 21st century, the use of social media has
punched a more gaping hole in the communication
link between parents and their children.
In some families, a mother can send her daughter
from the same lounge to the kitchen using
WhatsApp. The amount of time families spend on
their phones affects the effort and time parents put
into talking to their children. This is a moral
mutation as far as family ethos go.
Where there is no talking there is no trust and
where there is no trust, insecurities surface. A
child might be cyber-bullied and battle suicidal
35
Mr Kasinganeti Kudzai
thoughts alone because going to the parents is
foreign. Some children become loners in their
own homes due to unfamiliarity with their
parents.
One thing that has also affected parent-child
relations is the generation difference.
Children lock their parents out because they
believe them too old-fashioned to understand
teenage heartbreaks. This pushes the children
to bottle up their feelings and try to deal
with them alone which can institute serial
depression and fear of social engagement.
The key to mending the communication
bridge is introducing family therapy. This
helps parents and children to trust each other
with their mental problems. In schools,
children should be taught to respect not fear
their parents, pushing them to confide in
them when they have a mental problem or
disorder. Door-to-door campaigns by
counsellors can help families realize that
they can only tackle mental health issues
together as a unit. Publicizing stories of
mental health fatalities caused by lack of
communication can also help families realize
the importance of engaging. It is as simple as
taking a day off social media and going for a
family picnic, or a father going to tuck in his
daughter every night. It all starts with
building trust in each other from the go.
Only then can families discuss mental health
openly.
