What would you say to your Gr 8 self?
"Things will get tough but one day you'll find someone incredible who you'll feel the need to surpass!"
Looking ahead, what would you say to your future self?
"Don't work too hard and don't worry too much about the big things! Do the work little by little and keep being kind, cool and a optimistic."
Your favourite Bennies Memory?
My favourite memory was in grade 9 when my friends and I went to the jedi lab after school and played quake 3 with each other and our seniors! We had the funniest conversation! At some point we started roasting each other and I was at the top of the leader board and it led to me saying "yeah right and that's why you're in second place" I think. Then a few minutes later I fell off my chair - only to realize that it only had 3 legs!

Our College head boy, Thando Tshabalala, came to address the Prep School boys at their final assembly. He spoke about being a Bennies boys. He stated that it is our attitude that makes us a Bennies Boy. He encouraged the boys to walk their own path, but work together, look out for each other, encourage each other, embrace our diversity, build each other up, be kind, be respectful, and to be t#stbenedicts
The Bennies Boy starts here and now. He left the prep boys with a task "Help rebuild the brotherhood". We all belong to something greater, something with a rich history. We all belong here. Build bonds and break boundaries.
What a special assembly for our boys! 💙

Tech at Bennies 💻🕹🎮🤖
St Benedict's is committed to a progressive academic curriculum and technology is recognised as a very necessary and useful tool in the learning process. It is also important that boys make use of technology in a way that reflects the way of the world.
There are also many times when boys are required to learn skills sans technology and lessons are structured deliberately low-tech. The pace of technological change is rapid and we must be adaptable in the way we move forward with technology without losing our independent abilities to communicate, adapt, problem solve and create.

Our appeal for donations of sanitary pads was met with much enthusiasm from our Bennies boys and parents. We wish to thank every family that contributed.
A message from Assumption Convent School: We, Tracy Moukouemi and Tamryn Currie, the heads of Interact Club at Assumption Convent would like to send a big thank you to the St Benedicts boys' contribution towards the sanitary pad drive. We're extremely grateful for the amount of sanitary pads that have been donated. We know that the pads will be helping many girls that are in need.
