School Badge
The flag of Pei Chun is white with the school crest (a red circle, a yellow nib and a green triangle overlapping each other) in the centre. White signifies the pupils who are receiving an education in the school. The red circle signifies the co-operation among the staff, pupils and management committee members of the school. The yellow nib represents the government's education policy. The green triangle represents the scientific approach used by the school in its quest for truth and knowledge.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or badge:
“The first rule of education for me was discipline. Discipline is the keynote to learning. Discipline has been the great factor in my life. I discipline myself to do everything—getting up in the morning, walking, dancing, exercise. If you won’t have discipline, you won’t have a nation. We can’t have permissiveness. When someone comes in and says, “Oh, your room is so quiet,” I know I’ve been successful.”
—Rose Hoffman, U.S. public school third-grade teacher. As quoted in Working, book 8, by Studs Terkel (1973)
“Signor Antonio, many a time and oft
In the Rialto you have rated me
About my moneys and my usances.
Still have I borne it with a patient shrug,
For sufferance is the badge of all our tribe.
You call me misbeliever, cutthroat dog,
And spit upon my Jewish gaberdine,
And all for use of that which is mine own.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
