School Seal |
|
The monogram of the Virgin Mary and symbols that
evoke her victories form the greater part of Our
Lady of Victories Catholic School of Quezon
City-High School’s coat of arms. The school that
forms Christ in men has no surer guide than
Christ’s own Immaculate Mother, who first formed
Him in her own virginal womb. Top left, the
symbol of Mary’s name stands large. Top right,
the lion, the symbol of Christ
“Lion of the Tribe of Juda”who calls to our
students to gather to the standard of the cross.
On the chevron, four full stars signifying four
historic battles spiritual and military in which
our Queen, beautiful as an army arrayed for
battle, came to the aid of her sons and
scattered their enemies. These miraculous
victories
of
La Naval (1646), Vienna (1683),
Lepanto (1571), and the crushing of the
Albigensian heresy were all won through the
rosary, turning the tide of history for
centuries to follow. The spangled star refers to
the victory of Our Lady yet to come: the
conversion of Russia, in which the young men of
Our Lady of
Victories Catholic
School
are so certain that it is boldly
proclaimed with the others. Especially dear to
every Filipino must be the miraculous victory of
La Naval, depicted by the ships at the bottom of
the shield. This is Our Lady of Victories
Catholic School, proudly Catholic, proudly
Marian, proudly Filipino!

“Wisdom is mightier than
all”-wisdom
10:12
(used in the Mass of a Martyr)
True wisdom, which
deeply ponders and savors the things of God, judges all things in the
light of the highest of all principles, God Himself. Its realization is
nothing other than Jesus Christ, Wisdom Incarnate, being formed in the
souls of each of His children. It is this identification with Christ
that has given understanding
to confessors, fortitude to the
martyrs, and been the life-blood of the Church. The sons of Our Lady
of Victories Catholic School will build their convictions on
doctrine and virtue, learning from their Mother that true Wisdom is
ultimately a gift of God. In whatever field of study, they will see that
all they learn is but a small glimmer of light from that Eternal Wisdom,
Who is their final goal.
Primary Color:
Blue: Rich and
royal professing a triumphal pride in the victories of our glorious
Queen; joy in conquests past and faith in those yet to come.
Secondary Color:
White:
Symbolizing the immaculate purity of the Holy Virgin, the model for
those who are true sons, determined to arm themselves against the
Enemy’s corruption by purity of mind, heart, and body. |
