Title

Burwood Teachers' College anthem

Date

6th December 1967

Description

The anthem was sung with gusto at all College related events. The words, penned by Victor Fitcher and based on the College motto "Animum Cultum Parabo" ("I shall lay the foundation of a well trained mind") were as follows:
Animum Cultum Parabo, foundations firm we lay
Of eager, questing, tolerant minds,
Widening day by day.
On two world shield our symbol -
Bright sun, aspiring tree.
Keen minds that strive to truth and light
Ever free shall be.
