St. Lawrence Seminary High School - Mascot and School Colors

Mascot and School Colors

St. Lawrence Seminary’s sports teams are known as “The Hilltoppers”, inspired by the Swiss origins of the school's founders and the hill of Mount Calvary on which St. Lawrence is located. Brown and gold are the school colors, the brown taken from the color of the Capuchin Franciscan habit worn by the friars and the gold being the color that adorns the flag of the Catholic Church.

Famous quotes containing the words school and/or colors:

    When we were at school we were taught to sing the songs of the Europeans. How many of us were taught the songs of the Wanyamwezi or of the Wahehe? Many of us have learnt to dance the rumba, or the cha cha, to rock and roll and to twist and even to dance the waltz and foxtrot. But how many of us can dance, or have even heard of the gombe sugu, the mangala, nyang’umumi, kiduo, or lele mama?
    Julius K. Nyerere (b. 1922)

    The light is there, and colors surround us. However, if there were no light nor colors in our own eye, we wouldn’t perceive such things outside of us.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
