St Georges' College Parable

Now, there was a school That didn't suffer a fool A.M.D.G What it meant for me At least 90 years of teaching.......... And it showed......... The gentlemanly maths teacher....... Welcomed me, with kindly eyes Friendly smile What can I say..... Vainona............ A world away Men for others......... How true........ They meant it to..... There is order and discipline Self respect All the values and more......... I did detect A sense of pride........... Belonging too Wearing the red........ Casting aside......... The Vainona blue A sense of history and duty, of boys gone on before All these things ,I saw That sense of brotherhood, what it did for me.............. All these things I see All these things I see All these things I can be In a school....... Valued... As it should When things fall into place....... A ready smile A kindly face A genuine interest in what, You can achieve All these things I came to believe ST Georges Men for others The values it forges The kindness of the brothers So endeth the lesson, when you are valued, not vilified, your self worth accrued Your pride........ Men for others Sets the standard high above....... Our Vainona brothers
