School Song
School Song
The school song was written by an old girl and has been sung for decades by East students at formal events such as Prize Giving.
Winds about the East hills blowing
Sound of glorious, carefree days,
Sweep the city spread beneath us,
Bid it join their echoing lays;
O brave youth with joy and singing;
Set the hills for ever ringing,
Proud on high your standards raise.
Mind and body gain new courage,
From our lamp in radiance bright,
Though we fail, yet we will conquer,
Rise again and win the fight;
O brave youth with joy and singing;
Set the hills forever ringing,
Take and give to all, the light.
