Meet the Matrics | Michael Farinha 🎓
Michael joined Bennies in Grade R as a member of O’Leary House. His advice to his younger self is to enjoy every moment of high school, do his best and remember how quickly the years pass. Looking ahead, he reminds himself to take life one moment at a time, let go of what he cannot control and focus on living in the present rather than worrying about the future.
His fondest memory is Grade 8 camp. Having felt nervous about starting high school, the experience helped him realise that it was not something to be afraid of, but an exciting journey filled with fun and new experiences.
We wish Michael all the very best for the remainder of his matric journey and the exciting future that awaits him. Once a Bennies boy, always a Bennies boy.

Meet the Matrics | Lukas Mostert 🎓
Lukas joined Bennies in Grade 6 as a member of Erasme House. Looking back, his message to his younger self is a reminder of how far he has come and how proud he would be of the person he is today. As he looks to the future, his hope is simple: to be happy.
Some of his fondest Bennies memories are the moments spent laughing with his friends about the most ridiculous things. It is often these everyday moments that make the best memories and friendships that last well beyond the school years.
We wish Lukas all the very best for the remainder of his matric journey and the exciting future that awaits him. Once a Bennies boy, always a Bennies boy.

A special milestone in the faith journey of our boys. 🙏
Recently, 42 St Benedict’s boys received the Sacrament of Confirmation, presided over by His Eminence Cardinal Stephen Brislin.
It was wonderful to have our school leaders present to celebrate and gift the confirmands. 💙❤️
Thank you to the parents who walked this journey with the boys and to our RE Department for their guidance and dedication.
At Bennies, we nurture faith, character and values, with the goal of developing young men who will become A LIGHT IN THE WORLD!

Meet the Matrics | David Dong 🎓
David joined Bennies in Grade 9 as a member of Allard House. His advice to his younger self is to believe in his abilities, stay dedicated to his academics and make time for the friendships and relationships that matter. Looking ahead, he reminds himself of the perseverance that brought him this far and to trust that God’s plan is unfolding with every step.
One of his most meaningful memories was watching the First Team Rugby boys take on Saints in Grade 9. Joining in the war cries and experiencing the excitement of the victory gave him his first real taste of Bennies school spirit. Looking back, he now understands just how special that moment was.
We wish David all the very best for the remainder of his matric journey and the exciting future that awaits him. Once a Bennies boy, always a Bennies boy.
