Our School Anthem



The School Song

In days of old our founders set
Light on MacDougall's Hill
Since then it has spread and God has blessed
That light to burn on still

Chorus
Higher and yet higher
Shall our aim ever be
Living, giving
In this land of the free

Our bishops, fathers and boys of old
Have worked on with one aim
And shall press on forever
Our aim shall be the same (Chorus)

Our students come from far and near
Of every race and creed
Our watch-word's one 'Aim Higher'
In thought, in word, in deed (Chorus)

Our School shall stand for all that's best
Emblem of high endeavour
We'll march with will and God will bless
St. Thomas' School forever.


Never give up! I persevere to search high and low for our school anthem (since no one in our team has a record of it). I eventually found it on a Thomian website. Apparently another Thomian has set it up on the internet.
