Our chant

Cygnus stands together — these are the words we shout.

Swans in blue fly side by side,

Graceful wings spread far and wide,

One by one we take the lead,

Cygnus is all we need!

Captains personalise the chant — adding stamps, claps, jumps. EY and KS1 children use a simplified version with the last line and the call-and-response.

From Primary into Secondary

Cygnus grows into Lupus (the Wolf).

When Cosmos Secondary opens (2028-29), Cygnus students keep their colour and step into an animal constellation — same trait, scaled for older students.

Collective strength

Fly in formation → Hunt as a pack.
