Bonus Intra Melior Exi - Enter good, exit better, is the guiding philosophy in our approach to the development of all young Grammarians who pass through the School. This the original motto of the School, established in 1888.
Carmen Townsvillare
Aurum, lapides, argentum
Numero carens armentum,

Melius hinc exeatur.
Dum sescenti Townsvillares,
Nostros diligemus Lares,
Stella splendescet nitore
Townsvillaris puriore.
