Our Traditions
School Song & Prayers
School Song+
We give thanks to Our God for our School (3)
Yes, National is our School.
I will make my School always Proud,
All my life I will tell of my School.
It is the moulder of Children who're here
To make them Strive and Achieve and Serve.
May Almighty bless our School for ever,
It caters to the poor and the needy.
It is National who gives life to its Pupils
Who dedicate themselves to serve the Nation…
Prayer Before Class+
O my God, give me your light and blessings.
Help me to apply my mind to my studies, that I may understand and remember what I learn.
Give me courage to work well and to fulfil my duty.
Let my work be worthy of you, my Lord, to whom I offer it.
Prayer Before Examination / Test+
O my God, give me your light and blessings.
Help me to apply my mind to my Examination / Test, that I may understand the questions and remember what I have learnt.
Give me courage to write well. Let my writing be worthy of you, my Lord, to whom I offer it.
This is My Prayer+
This is my prayer to Thee, my Lord —
Strike, strike at the root of penury in my heart,
Give me the strength lightly to bear my joys and sorrows.
Give me the strength never to disown the poor or bend my knees before insolent might.
Give me the strength to make my love fruitful in service.
Give me the strength to raise my mind high above all daily trifles.
