[edit] School Crest

The School Crest consists of a shield with the school colors, sky Blue and maroon. The sky blue reflects the limitless opportunities to strive for and the maroon signifies the spirit of fraternity.

The open book symbolizes learning and knowledge, and the wheel symbolizes the technical aspect of education offered in the school.

On the tower, which denotes strength, is the lion which signifies courage and from which Singapore derives its name.

Below the shield is a banner with the school motto "Berani Berkhidmat" written on it. The motto, which means "Dare To Serve", is most appropriate at a time when our young independent Singapore requires men and women of courage to serve her and we are confident all Queenstownians will equal to the challenge that lies ahead.

In Queenstown Secondary our minds are trained

To keep our country free
