The School Song - SIC AD ASTRA (WRITTEN AND

ORIGINALLY SUNG BY COCKROFT)

In the Matabele Heartland,among the Malungwane hills

The old Bushtick lay quiet with abandoned shafts and mills

Our Founding Fathers gathered with a dream to pursue

So came the boys of falcon, so came the boys in blue.

CHORUS

Singing… Sic Itur Ad Astra, we’ll reach for the stars

We’ll wear our colours white and blue with pride upon our hearts

As we stand beneath our banner, whereon the silver Falcon soars

We’ll sing ‘Sic Itur Ad Astra’ and reach for the stars.

We’ll always stand together, united by our pride

We’ll always feel the Falcon fire, burning deep inside

Standing , shoulder-to-shoulder, we’ll see our victory through

Forever the boys of Falcon, forever the boys in blue.

CHORUS

We thank our founding Father for our legacy, our name

And for all the years ahead of of us, we’ll burn the Falcon Flame

And forever we’ll remember, from whence our wisdom grew

Forever the boys of Falcon, forever the boys in blue.

WAR CRIES

OLD BOYS OF FALCON

Old boys of Falcon when will we see the likes again

That played and won for your glorious blue and white

And stood against them our foes in rugby

And sent them homewards to think again

Those days have passed now and in the past they will remain

And we still play now and be the best again

And stand against them our foes and send them homewards to think again

Falcon Possesses

Falcon Possesses strength this matchless, spirt like you have never seen

Winning or losing, halting or cruising, we are a big bad rugby machine

Every school in Zimbabwe will fear, when the Falcon flies to every school the
message is clear

We will win the fight; everyone knows this to be true

Yes, we believe it, we sing with courage and pride for the boys in blue, sing

The envy of all other schools for no on can compare with things we do

Sing for the boys in blue, sing for the boys in blue, yes sing for the boys in
(pause) BLUE (loud)
