OUR HISTORY

The Name
The Badge
The white dove rising is representative of the peace of mind that pupils will find at Destinata as they journey forward during their educational career. The sprig of olive leaves represent hope for the future. Both symbols have a biblical reference and it is this God-centered character that is emphasised at the school. The motto is 'Felicitas et pax' which means 'peace and happiness'.

The Name
Because of the confusion caused by the name 'Peacehaven' and the new situation of the school, namely Golf Park, it was decided by the school's management to change the name.
The name 'Destinata' (Latin derivative) means 'destiny' or 'goal'. The school believes that its goal is optimal development.
