School Song
Here where we are nurtured
And tended with loving care
That we may grow from day to day
Hardy, resilient, persevering, wise
Whether at work or play
We'll be the best in every way
Chorus:
Youthful and vigorous
BPS will always be
BPSians, come on strive
To reach and excel
Towards greater heights
Imbue us with virtue
Help us be sincere
Let's be courteous and respectful
Generous, caring our commitments too
Come pledge honour and loyalty
To our school and our country
Chorus
