Rally and Blazonry
The school motto is Cita, Usaha, Jaya which means Aspire, Strive and Succeed. The armorial bearings are a white tome, a torch, a banner bearing the school motto (with 'Chita' spelled out in old Malay language) and Jalur Gemilang-derived crescent and star set on red and yellow in the school blazonry.
The red and yellow colours signify dynamism and cautioun; 1963 is the year SAS was founded; the torch signifies education; the crescent and star symbolize the nation, Islam and Rukunegara; the colours blue and white represent the values of serenity and purity; and the book represents knowledge.

Famous quotes containing the word rally:
“The bright old day now dawns again; the cry runs through the the land,
In England there shall be dear bread—in Ireland, sword and brand;
And poverty, and ignorance, shall swell the rich and grand,
So, rally round the rulers with the gentle iron hand,
Of the fine old English Tory days;
Hail to the coming time!”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
