PRIMARY GRANDPARENTS DAY

This morning the Primary Section organized Grand Parents Day.

About 250 grandparents came for the program and were kept tapping their feet to the music and singing of their grandchildren.

It was indeed a beautiful sight to see grandparents ranging from 60 to perhaps 80 sitting and being entertained by their grandchildren in school.

The lads a couple of poems and verses on grandparents that truly came from their heart, expressing the blessing of having grandparents in their lives.

The four houses dressed in their colours sang some songs from the 1970s singing Blue Suede shoes; Tie a Yellow Ribbon; Red River Valley & Green Door. We thank Sir Elvis and the House Teachers for training the students to sing so beautifully.

The Winners for the group singing were:

First Place to The Blue House

Second Place to the Yellow House.

The other houses got the consolation prizes.

After the singing the children went to their classes while there were a few games organized for the grandparents. After the items some of them who were ready to climb to the second floor were invited to see the boards of their grandchildren and interact with them in class.

BOARDERS PARENTS' DAY

This morning we had Parents Day for our boarders and a number of parents came for the celebration.

The boys put up a number of items and the parents were indeed delighted to see their children perform so well. There were some songs, dances, an address for the parents thanking them and appreciating them for their love and support.

The boys composed their own lyrics for the songs and sang them with a passion for their parents.

There was a short break for some snacks and then they resumed the entertainment with some songs from the DS Rockers.

Joseph Gomes and Ryan Fernandes composed their songs and sang it with rhythm and style swaying to the music and the beat.

Mrs. Colaco the mother of Raphael came forward at the end of the program and thanked the Fathers and brothers with Sir Haydn and the Benefactors for the lovely time they had. She told the parents that she was indeed happy that her sons and the others had such an opportunity to learn so much under the Salesians at Dominic Savio's.

All good things come to an end and so did this lovely day. The parents were then taken to the refectory and a good lunch was provided.

God bless one and all for making this day beautiful.
