School Song

School song unavailable

To play and work in harmony
Where many races meet
We help each other think, improve
Progress and succeed
Our deeds begin in thought
Which becomes success.
When we try to improve
We shall progress
We have courage with ambition
And stamina for the test
Brining honour to school and nation
Giving of our best.
