Motto A Posse ad Esse (From possibility to actuality) College Hymn Our Alma Mater dear
The school we all revere
Make us worthy
Help us ever to be
All that we ought to be
And always proud of thee
Naparima
To thee the best we owe
With which we may endow
Our island home
No matter where we roam
If near or far from home
Let us be always one
Naparima
