Our motto is Virtus Caelum Recludit. which translates to 'Character opens the way to the heavens', this motto came about from Professor B.F. Harris of the Classics Department of the University of Auckland. When working with the name of the school and the suggesting of the widening horizons, Haris discovered a passage in the Horace's Odes, Book 11 lines 21,22, this expressed the sentiments which seemed most appropriate.
