Logo
The design of our school logo is based on an aircraft which Guido Zuccoli flew at Aerobatic Flying Competitions. The plane is in a manoeuvre flying towards the future. Students at Zuccoli are are embarking on their education journey. Learning is a cycle that has various entry and exit points, just like an aerobatic plane undertakes. On top of the plane’s wings are the pages of a book - acknowledging the school and the learning that takes place within.
