Anthem

Let us sing

and rejoice

there’s a school in Brackenfell

starting us upon the road of life.

Where we live,

where we grow and we have faith –

with our feet on earth, our eyes on High.

And more precious still than all the pearls there are,

Paarl School guides our steps with love and care.

We have faith in One who is love Himself,

also loving let us be.

We have faith in One who is love Himself,

also loving we shall be.

School Shield

The background of the shield is formed by black and white vertical columns, symbolizing the twilight world in which the learner with cerebral palsy and learning disabilities finds himself or herself. 

In these circumstances he/she is given a light through education and therapy, which represented by the in-curving point opening toward the top, on which an open red rose is placed.

The contrast in colour contributes to a striking shield.  The motto “Fide et Amore” means “Through Faith and Love” and is indicative of the school’s approach to its learners.
