2022 has given us the opportunity to consolidate the new way of learning and focus on the Academic, Social and Spiritual aspect of our students, as we could enjoy a full comeback to school.

Our School Song
& Symbols

Tartan

Our uniform is based on the Lamont Ancient Tartan which is predominantly green, blue, black and white. This clan descends from the original Scots who crossed the sea from Iceland, where their original name meant “lawgiver”.

Motto

“Sic Itur Ad Astra” - which means “Such is the way to the stars”.

Logo and Shield

A navy blue shield with a white diagonally transversed cross surrounded by a thistle floral emblem. St. Andrew was one of Christ's twelve apostles. Since medieval times the X-shaped cross upon which St. Andrew was supposedly crucified has been the Scottish national symbol.

The Thistle is the national flower of Scotland, which was first used in the 15th century as a symbol of defense. St

Andrew's Day: November 30th

School Song

St. Andrew's you're our pride and joy Sic itur ad astra For every pupil girl or boy Hip rah rah rah rah

St. Andrew's we will live to learn To glorify your name As we go marching on We'll always guard your fame
