Matric Spotlight: Keegan Kung 🎓
Keegan Kung joined Mazenod House in Grade R and has grown into a determined and spirited member of the school. One of his fondest memories takes him back to the Grade 10 Orange River tour, a time filled with laughter, adventure, and camaraderie with his friends.
To his younger self, Keegan would offer a simple but clear piece of advice: do better. Looking ahead, his focus remains sharp and playful, staying true to himself with the mindset of “El psy kongroo.”
Adventurous, determined and resilient. Here’s to you, Keegan.

Five years ago, our Master in Charge of Swimming, Gerard Naus, founded Cardinal Aquatics with a vision to build a world-class swimming club right here at St Benedict’s College.
Today, we celebrate the club’s 5th birthday and what an incredible journey it has been. In just five years, Cardinal Aquatics has grown into one of the most successful swimming programmes in the country, expanding into multiple branches and now ranked 2nd in South Africa which is a true testament to the dedication of our swimmers, coaches, and supportive parents.
If you’d like to be part of this fantastic programme, get in touch at cardinalaquatics1@gmail.com

Here’s to the next chapter of excellence, growth, and Bennies spirit in the pool!

Matric Spotlight: John Payne 🎓
Allard’s John Payne joined Bennies in Grade 2, and from early on he learnt that school is a balance of hard work and not taking life too seriously. If he could speak to his Grade 8 self, he’d tell him to enjoy things while they’re still simple because it doesn’t get easier — but that doesn’t mean you can’t still have fun along the way.
Looking ahead, his advice to his future self is short, honest and very John: keep giving your best in everything you choose to take on.
His fondest memory goes back to his very first week at the College — joining the Bennies family and earning Star of the Week right away, a moment that made him feel at home from day one.
Steady, sincere and grounded. Here’s to you, John.

Celebrating our Grade 5 Cub of the Year 2025 🐻🥾
Daniel Findlay has shown exceptional dedication to the Cub programme, earning the Leaping Wolf Challenge and collecting numerous interest badges. His leadership, kindness and support to younger cubs make him a role model in every way.
We also hosted our District Leaping Wolf ceremony where seven St Benedict’s boys received this top award. It is the highest challenge a cub can achieve and speaks to the commitment each boy has shown.
Well done to all!
