School Song

 

We are the young, the children of the world
We hold tomorrow in our hands
We are the young, the promise of a brighter day.
The future waits at our command
Teach us well
Teach us how to care
Give us love; love that we can share
And we’ll walk hand in hand
In the light of the rising sun
We are the young.
 
We are the young and so we look to you
To show us how the world should be
We are the young
We trust in your experience
To help us shape our destiny
Teach us well
Teach us how to care
Teach us love, love that we can share
And we will walk hand in hand
In the light of the rising sun
We are the young.

 

School Prayer

 

Father God,
this College was founded on faith in you.
In that faith, may Ashton grow and flourish
so that we may be nurtured to leadership
and that learning may shine like a beacon on the Dolphin Coast.
Grant this Holy Father, for your name’s sake.
AMEN
