School Song
Hark! Now we sing
Of St Germain the school that we love
For it is here that we learn to uphold the right
Seeking light, seeking help from above
Strive might and main
Let the odds be what they will
We shall conquer all, trials great or small
Onwards lads! We must climb the Hill!
Lo! On the heights
Rays of glory illumine the skies,
'Tis the land where Truth and where virtue dwell
Where the sunshine of honour abides.
March! Falter not,
Though the way be weary and long.
All the toil and strife face we bravely now
Firm in faith, bold of heart and strong.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or song:
“There is nothing intrinsically better about a child who happily bounces off to school the first day and a child who is wary, watchful, and takes a longer time to separate from his parents and join the group. Neither one nor the other is smarter, better adjusted, or destined for a better life.”
—Ellen Galinsky (20th century)
“In almost all climes the tortoise and the frog are among the precursors and heralds of this season, and birds fly with song and glancing plumage, and plants spring and bloom, and winds blow, to correct this slight oscillation of the poles and preserve the equilibrium of nature.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
