School Anthem
Life is the gift of God
Each day that we live
At work or in the field
Enjoy as we please
Glory, alma mater
Vita donum dei….///
Life is the gift of God.
We’ve learned to cherish friends
Embrace them all the time
Forgive our enemies
And love them all alike
There’s no difference
‘cos love - a gift of God
The past we leave behind
Press towards the goal
Look at what's ahead
Obey the upward call
The faith is our key
‘cos faith - a gift of God
When upon life billows
We are tempest-tossed
We can fight them through
Every step of our way
Stand up, stand up, stand up and smile
Life is the gift of God.
Description of School Anthem
The lyrics of the School Song were written by Dr. Ramal Coorey and music was composed by veteran musician and singer Ivor Dennis. The school Anthem is based on Christian principles, Vita donum dei, which translated means “The life is the gift of God” (Roman 6:23), “ The faith is a gift of God” (Ephesians 2:8) and “ The love is a gift of God” (John 4:7).
Description of Crest
The elements of school Crest are based on the Words of our Lord Jesus Christ according to St. John 16:33, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” The ring of thorns depicts the obstacles or troubles that we face in life. The cross symbolizes that our foundations are based on Christian values. Yellow background symbolizes the peace that Christ gives through Holy Spirit, who is our comforter and counselor. Symbols of two children represents all children of Donum Dei International school. The stars represent the life’s goal.
Description of Motto
The Motto of Donum Dei International School, has the Latin phrase ‘Per aspera ad astra’ which translated means “through adversity to the stars.” Life is a journey, adversity or obstacles come frequently which blocks the path forward. Often it forces humanity to generate more strength, more energy to go forward and to achieve the final goal.
