On Tuesday June 27, we celebrated Benedict House Day. This is an important milestone which provided an opportunity for us to prayerfully contemplate the charism of St Benedict.
In our Liturgy, we were reminded that St Benedict chose to live the life of a hermit and settled in the mountainous region of Subiaco, Italy, where he lived in a cave for 3 years. We also learnt that whilst he was born into a relatively affluent family, he was not motivated by wealth. His life story challenges today’s world, in which we are often motivated by getting new phones, gadgets and other ‘stuff’.
A highlight of the day was that Benedict students came together for a shared lunch. This meant that students from all spheres of College life had the opportunity to mingle with one another. With St Benedict known for his capacity to build family, his Spirit was on display as the grey clouds lifted, the sun beamed, and students enjoyed their sausage sizzle and juice.
Students from other Houses across the College also recognised and celebrated Benedict House Day.
We would like to thank all students who led aspects of the day, parent volunteers and Salvado staff for helping the event come together.
