LAWRENCE PARK C.I. ATHLETICS PROGRAM

 

Amor Doctrinae Floreat

The school motto means “Let the Love of Learning Flourish”.  We hope that this statement not only guides you through your academic career, but also in athletics.

 

SPORTS MOTTO

Our goal is to create the opportunity for success and encourage you to reach your full potential.

The duration of an athletic contest is only a few minutes; while the training for it may take many weeks of arduous work and continuous exercise of self-effort.  The real value of sport is not the actual game played in the limelight of applause; but the hours of dogged determination and self discipline, carried out alone, imposed and supervised by an exacting conscience.  The applause soon dies away, the prize is left behind but the character you build is yours forever.

THE PANTHER

Our school mascot is a panther.  The panther symbolizes quickness, grace, cunning and determination.  A panther is a sleek animal that relies on its natural instincts and learned behaviours to survive and obtain its goals.  Your goal for your high school career may be academic and/or athletic in nature.  In order to be successful in achieving your goals you should strive to follow the Panther standard.  PANTHER CODE?

 

SCHOOL SONG

 

Give a cheer for the good old gold and blue!

Let’s keep our colours strong and true!

We’ll keep on trying

With hope undying.

Our spirit will shine through

RAH RAH!

Our motto: “let love of learning flourish”.

To work for our goals we’ll always strive.

Give a cheer for our talent and our teamwork, too.

And make that cheer a vict’ry cry.

Let’s go! We won’t stop until it’s victory

For the gang at L.P.C.I.
