School Anthem

Here we come from every nation,

For our work and for our plays,

Sure to meet each situation,

Whether days be bright or grey.

You will always find us ready,

With a willing helping hand,

To our comrades we'll be steady,

We the children from each land.

Happy here in joyful singing,

We are one large family,

And this message we are bringing,

Let us ever friendly be.

Dear Walsingham this pledge we offer,

Now and in our future days,

To keep this spirit we'll endeavour,

And encourage peaceful days.
