HELLO C1’s! A warm welcome to Athena and we hope you had fun throughout Orientation!!
Orientation is now over and we hope you have made some great memories with your classmates and friends and experienced our unique Hwa Chong culture!! We, the Athena Faculty Committee, are extremely grateful for you little OWLS for always giving your best and always keeping our spirits high!! Now school has officially started for a week and it’s a good time for us to #throwback to the good memories of orientation 🙂
Hope you still remember the very first day you stepped into your assigned classes. It might have been a little awkward at first (and possibly still is), but know that every single one of your classmates will be your brothers and sisters going through the tears and laughter together in these two years of JC life.
Do you still remember our first faculty meeting? Hope you liked your very first encounter of the green faculty! Athena is, and will always be your family in Hwa Chong, and that was your first official welcome into this bonded family. We cheer together, louder than ever, and louder than any other faculty in the school, in our very unique way —AHOOT!

Remember the first day you wore our faculty shirt with #greenpride? Put on your green face paint and got ready for war? Rally around the Athena flag and attack opponents’ bases together? Pick up the sponges and built a wall to defend our Athena pride? It is really heart-warming to see our whole faculty come together when everyone else is pointing their flags at us. We showed them what it is meant by #WeBleedGreen.
10 years down the road will we still be friends? Hope you enjoyed the campfire night as we CELEBRATE our victory of winning SoDaChe Challenge!! OH~~~ I just want to celebrate~~~ Want to watch the fac comm dancing the POP dance again? Fret not, just click the link below to rewatch the full performance!!

Yours proudly,
