  1. SCHOOL CREST

The school’s crest depicts five important symbols. In the centre is an anchor cast in deep-sea. This represents Tema, the harbour township where the school occupies an important place. It also represents the virtues of hope self-confidence and self-reliance. Enclosing the anchor is a circle, the symbol perfection.

The beige and green flanking the circle were, from the start, the colours of the two sets of uniform for the boys and girls in this co-educational institution. And the maroon in the background of the crest symbolizes nobility and dignity in our indigenes culture. Bringing the symbols in vivid relief are gold bands, meant to indicate the high quality of institution and moral training for which the school stands.

The symbolisms of the crest together are summed up in the school’s motto NIL NISI OPTIMA, or ONLY THE BEST. It throws challenge to all members especially students of this renowned institution to aim always at nothing short of their best.
