The Story of Our Shield
|
The school shield is
triangular in shape because we think of our school as composed of three sections.
These sections are further symbolized in the three links of chain which are intertwined on
the green background. Each link bears a symbol for each separate section. The
Cross is the choice of the Sacred Heart Section. The old Greek letter, alpha, represents
the Amalgamated section, while the Lamp in the link which is common to both sections,
representing learning. In the gold border we have the name of the school and the
school motto..."NOSCE TE IPSUM" .... "KNOW THYSELF"
