Motto and Creed
The motto of the school is "Bless Us To Be A Blessing".
The creed of the school is:
"To live as gently as I can
To be no matter where, a man,
To take what comes of good or ill
And cling to faith and honour still
To do my best and let that stand
The record of my brain and hand
And then should failure come to me
Still work and hope for victory."[1]
- ^ from Edgar Albert Guest's poem "My Creed"
