School Song

This is the school song of Broadrick Secondary:

Verse I:

As youths with might and courage

We will soar with honour and pride

No matter what our race or tongue

We're ready to serve in stride


Verse II:

We'll strive to achieve our goals and more

With passion we prevail

Remain gracious in thought and deed

To victory we sail


Chorus (x2):

Unite as one Broadricians!

We will aim to do our best

Our torch burning bright with the spark we ignite

Forging on with our heads held high
