St.
Stanislaus College, known to all Guyanese as "Saints" is a
co-educational High school located in
College Crest:
The College Crest has the cross fleury and the horse-shoe in azure and argent in alternate quarters. The horse-shoe is taken from the family coat of arms of the Kostkas, to which family St. Stanislaus belonged.
One of his ancestors invented the spiked horse-shoe, which gained a valuable victory over the Russian Cossacks. The engagement took place across a frozen river. The Polish cavalry were enabled easily to rout the enemy,
whose horses floundered and slipped, whilst their own horses had a firm grip on the ice.
Saints Motto:
The Saints motto, “Aeterna
non Caduca", was one of the sayings
of St. Stanislaus.
It may be translated as:
