St Benedict's welcomes all people as St Benedict would and strives to be a community that is compassionate, just and respectful. We endeavour to “listen with the ear of the heart and be people of hospitality that welcome the stranger and the visitor as if they were Christ himself" — Rule of St Benedict
Our vision is to acknowledge and respect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, cultures, histories, and perspectives. We continue to formative education that includes Aboriginal Torres Strait Islander perspectives, histories, cultures, and spirituality. We are committed to fostering a community which promotes equality, equity, and cultural safety for both Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and non-Indigenous students. We aspire to deepen our relationships with local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community members.
