School Song

Let us raise our voice in chorus.
Singing praise to our loved School
Where Our Lady watches o'er us
Pleased that we accept her rule.


Future harvests spread before us;
Hence our urfe of deepest yearning.
On our work our minds we focus
As we grow in grace and learning.


We will make our own the spirit
Of this School we love and cherish.
Peace and joy we here inherit,
Learning thus to be unselfish.


Let us raise aloft our banner,
Enblem of a noble goal,
Testifying to the frandeur
Of a pure unsullied soul.


O good mother of our Jesus,
Be our guide to strong endeavour!
"Help of Christians", is your title;
Hence our trust in your good favour!


When perchance hard times beset us,
We'll comfide all to Our Lady
Heart to heart with mind recalling
Clearly the ideals she sets us.
