School Song[]

Here is the Campus School's song sung often at events and assembly:

O Join together campus students one and all

To build a new and bright tomorrow for our land

With study play and earnest work we'll do our best

Let us together now march forward hand in hand.

Amidst the flowers fruit, and fields of Pantnagar

We think and learn and search and serve each other

With Courage and grace the honour of our school uphold

We will be makers of this school destiny.

In campus school we are one happy family

No matter poor or rich we work in unity

By knowledge gained we dare to shape our destiny

We will be makers of our country's history.

All the challenges that comes we dare to face

Our love and care we'd like to share with every race

From day to day we probe into life's mystery

We will be makers of our country's history
