Logo and Motto
The school logo consists of a palm tree to symbolize tropical Africa, a deep valley, which is the meaning of the word "Kianda" in several Bantu languages, and a glowing fire to symbolize a hearth, a symbol of the warmth a woman brings to the home and to society.
The school motto is In Opere et Veritate, Latin for "In deed and in truth". The motto was inspired by the Bible verse 1 John 3:18, which says: " My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth."

Famous quotes containing the word motto:
“I always say, my motto is “Art for my sake.” If I want to write, I write—and if I don’t want to, I won’t. The difficulty is to find exactly the form one’s passion—work is produced by passion with me ... Mwants to take.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
