<h3><span style="color: #ff00ff;"><strong>Mission</strong></span></h3>
<p>The School’s chief purpose is to develop the minds and consciences of its students so that they can become self-disciplined and resourceful, and therefore better able to serve society in a useful way. Above all, the School emphasizes academic excellence and moral integrity. The School aims at creating an environment that is conducive to learning; both experienced teachers and well-motivated students strive to create this environment.</p>
<p>Through daily close contact with the students in the classroom, in extra-curricular activities and on the sports fields, the School Staff strive to develop in the students such qualities, such as honesty, responsibility, good use of freedom, tolerance, and hard work. The School aims at providing an education based on Christian principles and accepts worthwhile students regardless of creed.</p>
<h3><strong><span style="color: #ff00ff;">Srathmore Court of Arms</span></strong></h3>
<p><img src="https://www.strathmore.ac.ke/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/Coat-of-Arms-300x224.png" /></p>
<p>The lion is the symbol of strength, power, courage of determined fight for excellence and justice. It also represents Kenya, our country, which has all the qualities mentioned above.</p>
<p>The Rose in full blossom represents, love, the source of all good desires and actions, even if at times it requires loving sacrifice, represented by the thorns the rose shows in its stem. The rose has some supernatural meaning. Love, in capital letters, is love of God. And also it has some historical meaning associated with the life of Blessed Josemaria who inspired and encouraged those who started Strathmore: He received a sign by means of a wooden gilded carved rose in a very trying moment of his life.</p>
<p>The Three hearts represent the three races which, in 1961 when the School started, were segregated in the colonial system of education. The heart represents the person, since it is taken as the source of all our actions, and the source of love. Being the three hearts of the same colour it shows the radical equality of all people. At the beginning it clearly meant the unity sought of the three major races. These days it means the co-operation of parents, teachers and students towards the same aim.</p>
<p>The motto “Ut ommnes unum sint” is in Latin. It is a quotation from a passage of the Gospel, and translated means “That all may be one”. It expresses the desire of working together towards the same aim, in spite of individual legitimate opinions, preferences and tastes.</p>
<p>The colours in heraldry (the science of making coats of arms) have associated meanings as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>Blue (Azure) Sky blue means high ideals, high aims;</li>
<li>Red (Gules) Blood red means sacrifice, love, fortitude;</li>
<li>Yellow (Gold ) Gold means eternity, perfection.</li>
</ul>
