St Benedict's
At St Benedict’s we understand what makes boys tick and keep them active with learning, sports and the arts. We nurture their minds, shape their souls, build their bodies and hone their hearts.

We are deeply saddened by the violence against women and girls in our country. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families and communities grieving lives lost, and with every woman and girl who lives with fear.
As a community of boys and men, we cannot remain silent. At St Benedict’s, we are reminded that we are our brother’s keeper. That responsibility extends to our sisters too.
We have a responsibility to speak up, challenge harmful attitudes and behaviours, and help build a culture where women and girls are treated with dignity, respect and compassion.
As a Catholic community, we pray for those affected by gender based violence and femicide, and for the courage to be part of the change our country needs.
We are our sisters’ keepers.
Meet the Matrics | Rourke Arnachillam 🎓
Rourke Arnachillam joined Bennies in Grade 8 as a member of Erasme House. His journey has taught him to trust himself, embrace new opportunities and not become so caught up in what comes next that he forgets to appreciate the people and moments around him. Looking ahead, he hopes to carry that same curiosity and sense of purpose into whatever comes next.
Rourke’s fondest Bennies memory takes him back to his very first day. Arriving unsure of where he belonged, a simple act of kindness from a fellow Bennies boy quickly turned those nerves into a sense of belonging. That introduction led to friendships that have shaped his years at Bennies and, as Rourke reflects, turned the school into a place he is proud to call home, surrounded by friends he is proud to call his brothers.
We wish Rourke 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.

Celebrating Culture Through Music 🥁
Our annual Marimba Festival was a wonderful celebration of the cultural side of life at St Benedict’s, bringing our boys together with schools from across the community through a shared love of music.
Opportunities like these allow our boys to perform, collaborate and experience the value of sharing their talents with others.
Thank you to all the schools who joined us and to everyone who came out to support our boys. Your presence made the festival a memorable celebration of music, culture and community.

A night of First Team football ⚽️
A look back at our boys in action against Parktown Boys’ High School. Plenty of energy, determination and pride on display as they represented Bennies on the field.
Well done boys! 🙌
