Crest, Anthem and War Cry

CREST

The Shield: With its chevrons and bars, it is a symbol of strength and fortitude.

The Motto: ‘Luceat Lux Vestra’ (Let your light shine) is found in the fifth chapter of Matthew’s Gospel just after Christ’s preaching the Beatitudes in the Sermon on the Mount. Just as the world needs light, so it also needs disciples like the Master. Light hidden under cover is of no use. Those who wear the crest pledge fidelity to this motto.

The Star: Seen mounting the Crest, it signifies that the College lights the way to knowledge and to the Heavenly Father.

聽Teach us how to learn from thee;
聽Zeal in learning, Faith in turning,
聽Work and play to sanctity.

聽To do and love the right and to let our light
聽Shine for all to see.
