College Crest

The Corpus Christi College Crest features a fore-shortened Celtic cross, surrounded by a circle. The Celtic cross was specially chosen because it does not carry the figure of the crucified Christ, but rather symbolises the risen Christ, our source of joy and celebration.

The white field symbolises the Eucharist, in which we celebrate the risen Christ and give thanks for the sacrifice of His life for us. This symbolism is emphasised by the words "CORPUS CHRISTI" (Body of Christ) from which the College derives its name.

The colour burgundy reminds us of the red wine consecrated in the Eucharistic celebration to become the blood of Christ, a symbol of sacrifice and community celebration.

The blue circle denotes the tranquility of believing in and being saved by our resurrected Lord, present with us in the Eucharist. The colour blue also reminds us of the humanity of Christ through his mother Mary.

Motto

 "SEQUERE DOMINUM" (Follow the Lord) incorporates the ideal and challenge of following our Lord, Jesus Christ, God and Man, our exemplar and model.
