Our school song:
In thankfulness and honour, glory
To our God and to our Lord join hands together, build our future
Honour God, do honour God
In the open country side,
Mountains , thorn trees and blue skies
Boldly stand our school with pride
Where we work with joy and zeal to live and grow our motto
We strive always to be true
We are steadfast everyday
