School Achievements | “Excel to win…Maintain integrity to last”
“Maintaining excellence through hard work and integrity” was the motto that permeated the atmosphere over the past two years as the Dinthill Technical High School cemented its brand globally. This theme was given full expression and embodiment throughout our activities over the period, and we toiled tirelessly to ensure that the key elements of the theme remained our trademark throughout the year.
