}, which translated as "Strive to the end". The Girls' High School motto was the la, Facta non verba, translated as "Deeds not words". There was a fire in the girls' assembly hall in the early 1970s as well as fires in the boys' school.

Thus, the schools merged in 1976 to form Narrabeen High School and most of the school buildings date from this ...
