Do you know what the symbols on our badge mean??
In the centre of the crest lies a red shield
With a silver band edged in gold
The shield, surmounted by a gold Cross
Is encircled by a garland of white marguerites,
Which speaks of simplicity.
On the right is a Gospel with a silver rosary.
The Gospel is a light to life and its mysteries.
The rosary is the Gospel in minature seen
Through the eyes of Mary, the Mother of Jesus.
On the left are a golden distaff and a spindle,
Symbols of womanly labour.
Do you know our motto?
'Simple Dans Ma Vertu
Forte Dans Mon Devoir'
It's in french... In English, it means
'Simple in Virtue
Steadfast in Duty'
