RUZAWI PHILOSOPHIES & ETHOS Ruzawi School Motto "Learning Knights" "The motto is of special interest suggested to us in 1921 by Canon Arthur Davies, Principal of St. John's College, Agra, and later Dean of Worcester. In an old Northumbrian Gospel (circ A.D. 1150) the word disciple does not appear. When any mention is made of the followers of our Lord, the words used are "Learning Knights". It would be difficult to find two words that better define the aim of the Christian life for Prep. School boys." (Girls since 2003) “Ruzawi: The Founding of a School” Ruzawi Purpose To fulfil the founding principles established in 1928 by Messrs Carver and Grinham, by providing a balanced education in accordance with the Christian faith in the Anglican tradition in service of God, the School and the community.
