THE COLLEGE MOTTO, EMBLEM/FLAG AND HYMN The College motto is 'NISI DOMINUS'. This is a Latin word for ' Only through God', that is, without God you cannot achieve anything. This motto is alongside 'Education for Responsibilty' which reflects the purpose for which the school teaches and trains students. The two constitute the guiding principles along which the students and teachers define their acts and behaviours.
The College flag consists of green and yellow colours, in four squares arranged in a pattern where the two colours are adjacent to each other. The flag is flown on all official college functions and every Tuesday morning at assemblies. During its hosting the college anthem is sung. These consitute cherished symbols of the college. COLLEGE HYMN Bless this school, O Lord we pray, Make it safe by night and day. Bless thses walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out. Bless each master, bless each boy, Let Thy peace be all our joy. Bless the door that it may prove Ever open to joy and love.
Bless these these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heavenly light. Bless this school and make it Thy own. With prayers ascending to Thy throne. Bless the people who dwell herein, Keep them pure and free from sin. Bless us all that we one day, May dwell with Thee eternally.
