College Anthem
The college anthem was inherited from Victoria School's original pre-1987 school song, after modifications were made to the lyrics so that VS and VJC can share a common Victorian Anthem. "School" was dropped after "Victoria" in the first two paragraphs shown below in 1987 by Victoria School.
Lyrics by J A Frazer (pre-1987 version)
Music by W E Meyer
Victoria in Singapore
There are other schools we know
Victoria is something more
The school that watch'd us grow
For here we've learnt and striven too
And played the sportsman's game
Victoria we give to you
The honour that you claim
Victoria, thy sons are we
And we will not forget
Victoria, thy triumphs see
And victories we share yet
For others came before and went
And carried to the world
Victoria's fame and our intent
To keep her flag unfurled.

Famous quotes containing the word college:
“Placing too much importance on where a child goes rather than what he does there . . . doesn’t take into account the child’s needs or individuality, and this is true in college selection as well as kindergarten.”
—Norman Giddan (20th century)
