School Song We've Joan of Arc in history and Coeur de Lion too And stout courageous Wellington, remember Waterloo Of Nelson and Napoleon full many a noble song That's sung to make out pulses throb out hearts beat loud and strong But who will make the history and weave the fabric fine Record thy fame in golden deeds Let honour bright be thine And who will cast away the self and strive continually To make me worthy oh my school of thy great destiny. Why we the school girls of today and those who follow on And those who've gone before us will forge the chain of song Of beauty honour, faith and hope Of joy and happiness That stands for all that's noble in out GRAND OLD GHS | |
