A LIFE OF SAINT BENEDICT

After founding twelve communities of monks at Subiaco, Italy, Benedict of Norcia (480 AD – 21 March 547) traveled to Montecassino where he established a monastery and wrote “The Rule.” This simple set of guidelines for how the life of a monk should be lived has become one of the most influential works in all of Western Christendom.

HISTORY

EARLY LIFE — NORCIA

Saint Benedict was born at Norcia around 480 AD. That historical time frame, a mere four years before the Western Roman Empire formally fell by the deposition of the last Emperor, Romulus Augustulus, was quite difficult. The only authentic life of Saint Benedict is that which is contained in the second book of the Pope Saint Gregory’s Dialogues, probably written between 593-594 AD. 

After attending primary schools in Norcia, Benedict went to Rome to broaden his knowledge of literature and law. However, since he was probably disgusted by the dissolute lifestyle of his peers and by Rome’s difficult political situation, he retired to Affile with a group of priests, taking his old nurse with him as a servant. 

At Affile, Saint Benedict worked his first miracle, restoring to perfect condition an earthenware wheat sifter which his man-servant had accidentally broken. The notoriety which this miracle brought drove Benedict to withdraw further from social life. He took shelter in a cave in the ruins of Nero’s village, near Subiaco, where he began to live as a hermit. Immersed in loneliness, his only contact with the outside world was with a monk called Romanus, whose monastery was nearby. He gave Saint Benedict a monk’s habit and provided for his spiritual and material needs. Three solitary years followed. Some shepherds befriended Benedict. They began to follow his teachings and the pastoral and apostolic principles of the Benedictine Order took root. 

FOUNDING MONASTERIES — SUBIACO

After resisting a strong temptation against chastity, Benedict prepared to live through a new experience, following the example of the ancient Fathers of Christian Monasticism. At first, the community of Vicovaro wanted him as its Abbot, but the failed attempt of a monk to poison him forced Benedict to return to his solitude. Afterwards, he founded twelve monasteries and assigned twelve monks to each of them. In addition, he founded a thirteenth monastery for novices and those needing education. Benedict’s fame spread so rapidly, even in Rome, that two illustrious men, Equizius and the nobleman Tertullus, entrusted him with their two sons, Maurus and Placidus. They were to become the first two gems of the Benedictine family. 

During his life, Saint Benedict performed many miracles. He found water on a desolate mountaintop to quench the thirst of his monks. He retrieved a bill hook’s iron from the bottom of a lake and rejoined its handle. He prevented a monk from leading a dissolute life through intervention. In addition, he made Maurus walk on water to save the young Placidus from drowning. 

Unfortunately, a priest called Florentius was envious of Benedict’s popularity and his envy forced the Saint to depart in spite of insistence from his disciples. After leaving Subiaco, Benedict went towards Cassino. In the period between 525 and 529 AD he founded the Abbey of Montecassino. It would become the most famous abbey in continental Europe. Under Benedict’s direction, the old acropolis-sanctuary towering above the declined Roman municipium of Casinum was turned into a monastery that was much bigger than those built at Subiaco. On the remains of the altar of Apollo he built a chapel dedicated to Saint John the Baptist, while the temple of Apollo itself was turned into an oratory for the monks which was dedicated to Saint Martin of Tours. 

MONASTIC LIFE TAKES ROOT — MONTECASSINO   

At Montecassino Saint Benedict displayed prodigious activity. He supervised the building of the monastery, established a monastic order and performed many miracles. He brought back from death a youngster, miraculously supplied the monastery with flour and oil in its time of need and displayed the gift of prophecy. In autumn of 542 AD, while the Goth King Totila was passing through Cassino en route to Naples to attack it, he decided to test Saint Benedict because he had already heard of his gifts and charisms. As a consequence, Totila sent his squire dressed as a king to greet the monk; but Saint Benedict soon unmasked him. When he finally met Totila, he warned him with a dire prediction: “You have hurt many and you continue to do it, now stop behaving badly! You will enter Rome, you will cross the vast sea, you will reign for nine years; however in the tenth year, you will die.” And that is exactly what happened. Saint Benedict showed the same virtue as he cried bitterly when confronted wiht the vision of the first destruction of his monastery. Notwithstanding, he received from God the grace to save all the monks. 

Saint Benedict devoted himself to evangelizing the local population who practiced pagan worship. Shortly before he died, Saint Benedict saw the soul of his sister Saint Scholastica rising to heaven in the form of a dove. This vision happened a few days after their last talk together at the foot of Montecassino. In a vision, Benedict saw the soul of Bishop Germanus of Capua taken by angels in a fire globe. These visions, for Pope Saint Gregory the Great, showed a close union between Benedict and God, a union so intense that the Saint was given the share of an even more magnificent vision, the whole of creation as gathered in a sunbeam. 

In the end, a life so noble was justifiably followed by a much-glorified death. According to tradition, Saint Benedict died on March 21, 547 AD. He foresaw his coming death, informing his close and faraway disciples that the end was near. Six days before dying, he had the grave which he was to share with his deceased sister Saint Scholastica, opened. Then, completely exhausted, he asked to be taken into his oratory where, after taking his last Holy Communion, he died supported by his monks.

Vision and Mission

St. Benedict’s Uni Campus is an educational institution, dedicated to the motto of   “ Enter to Learn, Leave to Serve”

blue and white academic hat

Teaching Philosophy

We believe that practical application trumps theory. We make sure that whatever we teach our students at SBUC can be deployed by them at their workplace effectively the very next day. Further, we believe strongly in discussions and peer learning; the concept that students learn a great deal by explaining their ideas to others, and exchanging opinions. 

We value the quality and capability of our Graduates and our focus always has been and will be on these two aspects.

Vision

Our vision at SBUC is to empower students to acquire, demonstrate, articulate and value knowledge and skills that will support them, as life-long learners, to participate in and contribute to the global world and practice the core values of the school: respect, tolerance & inclusion, and excellence. We inculcate in students the spirit of creativity and innovation and mould them as valiant paragons to face the challenging world outside.

Mission

“Inspiring and transforming lives through learning”

We promote improvement in all sectors of education and at all stages of the learning journey, from the early years to adult and continuing education.

The mission has a strong focus on improving outcomes in ways which seek to eliminate the inequity which currently exists amongst learners from different backgrounds and from particular vulnerable groups.

The mission reflects our commitment to playing a lead role in promoting strong partnership working amongst the key partners supporting and delivering education. We believe our aspirations for improvement in education are shared by all of our key partners .These can only be achieved by working together co-operatively, with mutual respect for, and understanding of, our different roles, responsibilities and relationship.

We believe that children actively construct theories about their world and test their hypotheses through meaningful hands-on experiences as well as social interactions and relationships with their teachers and their peers.

We foster children’s imagination, curiosity, inquiry, creativity, critical thinking and problem solving to shape a lifelong passion for learning through the whole development of the child: physical, intellectual, emotional and social.

We educate children to meet the needs of a rapidly changing world where the ability to problem-solve, innovate, learn independently and cooperate is of paramount importance.

From third party sources (for example, other institutions involved in collaborative programmes). When we obtain personal data about Students from third party sources, we will aim to ensure that the third party has lawful authority to provide us with Student’s personal data.

 1. Consent

On specific occasions, St Benedict’s Uni Campus will only process certain data if Students consent. For example, on their application form, they only need to provide certain “special categories” of data if they agree to that.

2. Necessary for entering into a Student Admission 

On many occasions,  St Benedict’s Uni Campus will process Student’s data to enable it to meet its commitments to them, for example assessing their application for an offer of a place.

3. Necessary for the performance of a task carried in the public interest 

 St Benedict’s Uni Campus is an educational establishment and in particular, its educational activity is conducted in the public interest (including Student’s interests and the interest of others).

4. Necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interest of  St Benedict’s Uni Campus or a third-party subject to overridden interests of the data subject

St Benedict’s Uni Campus (and sometimes third parties) has a broad legitimate interest in activities that connect to the activities and education of Students. Subject to those interests not being overridden by the interests of fundamental rights and freedoms of Students, it will pursue those interests.
