The boarders of the Boys Home celebrated Savio Nite on the 5th July 2010. Br. Brenden had a number of Savio games, puzzles, quizzes, group songs and ads for the occasion. The boarders were indeed delighted to participate in the Nite and it was something very new for the new comers who at first seemed lost with what had to be done. They soon took an active part in the nite that went on till after 11.00 pm.
Master Nigel Rodrigues welcomed the gathering and introduced the occasion.

Julius told the gathering that he was happy to be present as he was once a boarding master in this very place and that it brought back many good and wonderful memories of the place and the people. he wished them well and prayed that the life of Dominic Savio would touch them and that they would imitate him.
