School Anthem & Creed & Crest
The School Crest has a Red Dragon on the left and a Chinese Junk on the right.
Our school colours are Red and Green.
The Red Dragon stands for courage, endeavour and the everlasting fire of leadership.
The Chinese Junk symbolises seeking and making progress and the ongoing quest for peace and success.
Our School Anthem:
In eighteen-eighty five, our founder Gan Eng Seng
Conceived the noble aim for a new breed of men
He started a free school for boys who were poor
To give them a chance to be something more
To teach them to learn, play and live at the fore
To give of their best and say forever more
( Chorus )
Onward, Onward
Gan Eng Seng for Gessians
Onward, Onward
Gessians for Gan Eng Seng
The story of our school is a history of change
But truth, faith and vigour survived circumstances strange
And true to the meaning of the signs on our crest
A dragon for fire of leadership
And ship for seeking and making progress
In word and deed we vow forever more
( Chorus )
Onward, Onward
Gan Eng Seng for Gessians
Onward, Onward
Gessians for Gan Eng Seng
Composed by: Mr R.C. Scharenguivel
Our School Creed:
This is our school
Let peace dwell here
Let there be contentment
Let love abide here
Love of one another
Love of mankind
Love of life itself
And love of God
Let us remember
That as many hands build a house
So many hearts make a school
