THE SCHOOL SONG
1 - Accra Academy our pride. The school of no regrets.
In her our little minds were shaped. To serve our Nation Great.
2 - In Ellen House our School was born. To men of sacrifice.
The cradle low, the hands so few. The future, blurred and bleak.
3 - We humbly bow in gratitude. To all who chiselled us.
Their praises we shall sing always. Their memories still revered.
4 - From humble growth this school of ours. A pride of place has won.
Her children great in every clime Of Ghana's great domain.
5 - 0 Lord, to Thee we dedicate Accra Academy. Esse Quam Videri,
we say and Bleoo, Accra Aca.
