SCHOOL SONG

Sing we San Clemente's praise  
Guardian of our girlhood days  
Teaching true and faithful ways  
Salve San Clemente!

Gem from Australia's heart  
Set in Dominican art  
Proudly you'll bear your part  
                 in our country's story,  
To our country's glory.

Rose from Dominican seed  
Grown for Australia's need  
Flower of Faith, our creed  
                 giving praise to Mary  
To Christ, through Mary.

Steadfast to truth you cling  
Joy to our youth you bring  
Ever more your praise we'll sing  
Salve San Clemente!  

The music of the school song was composed by Frank Hutchens, a highly esteemed musician.
