Its that time of the year again, when we put our heads together to attempt to best the rest on stage. This years DRAMAFESTE theme is "Fault Lines", and we're calling out for enthusiastic Aresians to send in scripts, or even just preliminary ideas to be further built upon!
Please send all script submissions or any suggestions to spikyhair@gmail.com (Max Fu) or wintermellon@hotmail.com (Daniel Soo), by Monday 25th Jan 2010. A mystery prize awaits the person whose idea is adopted this year!!!!!!! ;)
2009 and the times spent with Ares will definitely be treasured. & the fac comm would like to thank everyone for being a part of this awesome red hot year! Here are some of the highlights:
1. Wow-ing the crowd at POP 2009 with our fac dance! (Special thanks to Chong Tee & Chit) 2. Making our presence felt and claiming the title at War Games 2009! 3. Coming together to organise a fun fair for a good cause (: 4. Dramafeste! 5. Ares Faculty Outing- Zzz 6. Cheering our hearts out at CSM 7. Faculty Breakfast 09 8. Winning the Festival of Sports 2009! 9. Space Bar 2009!
Of course there were many other small but equally awesome things that happened in between, like the first issue of RAW (our publication), the just for laughs video, pre-exam encouragement video, and our numerous EC-Meet-Fac sessions together. We enjoyed every minute of it; both the UPS that brought smiles to our faces and even the slight DOWNS that will only make us stronger.
Thanks for the memories, and we look forward to a great 2010 as one red, hot and rocking faculty!
We hope your holidays have been enjoyable for you, there’s less than 1 more month of holidays left so be sure to get outside and have your last bit of fun before we get back to mugging for our tests and exams :(
Anyway, here’s the much anticipated blog post about SPACEBAR 2009!
The 14th of November was a truly memorable day for all Aresians. We gathered at the O’ Learys sports bar & grill for a night filled with fun, joy and laughter. There were many exciting performances by our talented Aresians, as well as games to keep us entertained throughout the night.
Here’s a quick recap of the night:

ARES FAC COMM 09/10
Spacebar 2009 was a great success, and we owe our thanks to the following people:
O’ Learys Bar & Grill, for providing us with such a beautiful place to hold our event
Harvey, the sound system dude who provided us with a cheap and good sound system for the event
Faculty teachers, for providing us with invaluable guidance and vetting our proposals one after another
Councillors, for helping us setup and clean up :D (thanks harrison we owe you one)
Faculty committee, for putting in their blood, sweat and tears into making this outing possible
Our greatest thanks goes out to everyone out there who attended SPACEBAR 2009, for all our effort would have gone to waste without you.
We will continue to upload pictures of SPACEBAR 2009 on the blog, so feel free to approach any fac comm member if you happen to have any pictures to share with the faculty.
HEY ARES! it's just ONE DAY (!!!) before our much anticipated faculty event! Just to recap, here are the details:
Event: Space Bar 2009 Venue: O'Leary's Bar and Grill 30 Raffles Avenue #01-04 Singapore Flyer Time: 7pm-10pm++ Ticket Price: $10 (If you haven't bought one, fret not! Some tickets will be sold at the door)
Due to road diversions and road closures, some bus services and roads near our venue might be affected. These bus services are: 75, 77, 106, 171, 700, 700A, 857, 960 (SMRT) and 10, 36,57, 70, 70M, 97, 111, 133, 162M, 196, 502, 518 (SBS)
Do refer to SMRT and SBS websites for more information.
However, there is still access to the Singapore Flyer through certain roads. If you are coming by car/taxi, please take note of road closures. If you are coming by bus/mrt, you might want to consider taking this convenient shuttle bus service:
There is a shuttle bus service to the Singapore Flyer that comes every half an hour, from 10am-11pm. The pick-up point is at City Hall MRT (Bus stop between St. Andrew's Cathedral and The Adelphi, along Coleman Street). It will drop you off at the Singapore Flyer Coach Bay. However, it is $2 per head.
To make things easier, the Singapore Flyer is accessible by foot. From City Hall MRT station, walk through City Link. Look out for signages that will lead you to the Esplanade. From there, come out to the street level. Then, walk in the general direction of the Singapore Flyer. Some Fac Comm members will be stationed there to guide you.
Also, you should have heard about the food eating competition we are having! Each class is encouraged to send a pair to represent them in this food eating competition with a twist! Do come down to cheer your classmates on as well! So far, these are the participants:
A10: Loh Yi Cheng, Lee Kwang Chian A13: Bertrand Tan, Clement Lin A16: Cai Jia Sheng, (needs a partner) s70: Samuel Tan, Daniel Yip S72: Theodore Pung, Ang Zi Keng S74: Ong Cheng Siang, Chin Kiat S76: Larry Lau, Nicole Lim S7A: Jerrold Au, Dillon Yap
If your class is not represented but you would like to participate, please inform your CT Rep by today! You stand to win prizes so do participate actively! It's all in the name of fun (:
We hope to see you there tomorrow. Space Bar 2009. Cos it's Out of this World!
You've probably seen the striking banner hanging just above the right wing, and heard the bridge announcement being made (think cheesy pick-up lines and boom boom pow).
Well, the much anticipated Ares Faculty Outing Space Bar is coming really really soon (!!!)
be prepared for good food, groovy music, great fun and awesome company! Here are the details again.
Date: Saturday, 14th November 2009 Venue: O'Leary's Bar & Grill (Singapore Flyer) Time: 7pm-10pm
Dress code (optional): Anything space related; from a simple star on your shirt to a full darth vadar suit!
More details on the exciting activities will be released in the course of this week and the next.
Aresians who have ordered tickets through their CT Reps will be receiving them tomorrow, and they will look something like this:
(the above is a sample)

If you haven't gotten your tickets, do so through your CT Reps tomorrow (:
See you there. Space Bar 2009. It's gonna be a blast!

The faculty of ares
In Greek mythology, Ares, meaning battle and strife, is the Olympian god of war and son of Zeus and Hera.
Colour: Fiery Red
The colour red represents the fiery spirit and tenacity of Ares. Don't you feel your heart racing and adrenaline pumping when you see a sea of red cheering for their faculty? Not to mention we're the hottest faculty. :)
Mascot: Raging Stallion
When speaking of the stallion, courage and strength comes to mind - just like when speaking of our faculty!
