ALSO, there'll be another mass dance practice on Friday. We'll update the blog as soon as we finalize details! :D Meanwhile, have fun practicing with the dance tutorials.

To all Aresians who showed up today at the faculty dance practice - we were bowled over by your diligence and dedication to master the dance. It was an spectacular show of perseverance as you guys continued to dance tirelessly even after for relentless hours. Seriously, YOU GUYS ROCK.

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!
