Shellharbour Anglican College - Crest and Motto |
![]() |
The Crest The waves in the background reflect the local area and the recreational water sports for which the area is renowned. They speak of our connection with the local community and our desire, as a school community, to contribute to the area in which we live and work. The Cross is at the heart of the crest as it reminds us of who we are , a Christian school with Anglican tradition. The cross is an ecumenical symbol of Christian faith and is foundational to Christian faith. "In Christ Alone" The Motto draws us to consider the cross again. The Cross, historically, was an instrument of punishment and death. It is "In Christ Alone" that the cross becomes a symbol of new life, of hope and eternal salvation. For those of our college community who claim a Christian faith we are acknowledging that "In Christ Alone" we find forgiveness once and for all and the strength and wisdom that we need for daily living. |
