Our school

Vision, Mission & Values of St Benedict’s

Veritas in Caritate (Truth in Charity)

St Benedict’s is a Catholic school for boys that provides a holistic, gospel and values-based education centred on the example of Jesus Christ and based on the four pillars of academics, religion, sport and the arts. Our boys use their talents to serve the world; its people and the kingdom of God.

Our Values

Our core values define us as a school – and as individuals.

Through the regular application of our core values, we continue to provide value to our boys and parents, and we will consistently meet our goals. We use the beatitudes – the series of blessings declared by Jesus during His Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5 – as a framework for our gospel-based approach and strive to develop healthy habits of mind, heart, body and soul in our boys.
