School Song

O Balestier Boys’ School,
To you we give our thanks
For you have watched over us,
Teaching us to be loyal and brave;
Rugged and strong you make us,
Through lessons, sports and games;
“Be A Man” a motto you taught us,
That brings forth our best,
Go forward, Balestians,
Our victories to share;
Unfurl the flag, unfurl the flag,
O we Balestians
Unfurl, the flag, unfurl the flag,
Let it fly in the air;
Brothers in learning and brothers at play
Onward boldly march today!
