GPCC Alumni, Tim Owers - Archibald Prize Finalist 2024

Green Point Christian College would like to congratulate Alumni, Tim Owers (2006) on the prestigious honour of being a finalist in the 2024 Archibald Prize.

Past student, Tim Owers says "I am thrilled to announce that my portrait of Cortnee Vine has been selected as a finalist in the 2024 Archibald Prize!

The painting, titled 'On the bench and on the cusp (portrait of Cortnee Vine)', depicts the CommBank Matildas and Sydney FC star on the garden bench at my studio. The work seeks to explore the life-changing moment during the Aus v. Fra World Cup quarterfinal when Cortnee was called onto the field, after 104 minutes on the bench, and went on to score "the pen" that will be forever etched into our minds!

Cortnee is a humble, generous, curious and creative person whom I admire greatly. She has arguably become the face of Australian football this year - and rightfully so. She works so hard to further women's football and gives so much of herself to support her teammates. As a sitter, she has been enthusiastic, transparent, flexible, and just plain fun to be around. Thanks for entrusting me to capture you, Cortnee.

The Archibald Prize will be on display from the 8th June until 8th September at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. A huge congratulations to the other finalists, and I'm looking forward to celebrating with you all soon!"

Staff Member of the Week

This week our staff member of the week was awarded to Mrs Stephanie Johnston.

Steph always takes great care in updating the telephone directory and ensuring that the concession travel cards for students are done in a timely manner. She stays behind to watch over students who missed the bus and she joyfully welcomes all who enter reception.

Steph goes above and beyond to ensure that the Casual teachers are well looked after and Steph washes the lanyards and safety vests. She happily steps in when the admin team needs assistance in the office. Congratulations Steph.
