School Motto

「爾乃世之光」 “Thou art the Light of the World”

The motto of the school was derived from the Chinese translation of the biblical phrase: ‘Thou art the Light of the World’ (爾乃世之光) (Matthew 5:14).

We hope our students can become ‘True Light of the World’ – the future light-bearers and seed-sowers of the Christian faith.
