Princess Elizabeth Primary School
Now we hear you call
As members we will serve you
that teaches us all

Never from the good we stray
We will always strive
Each at his best attempting
Higher aims in life.

None more loved can be
Harder ever harder

Both in learning and in games.

Each will do the best
Helping each other always
Smiling through the test.
