FEAST OF DON BOSCO 2012

We at St. Dominic Savio High School celebrated the Feast of St. John Bosco this morning with the Eucharistic celebration at 09.00 AM for all the Catholic students, staff, Past Pupils, Cooperators, Benefactors and Friends of Don Bosco.

Fr. Barnabe D'Souza, Director of Don Bosco Balprafulta was the main celebrant and took salient features from the life of Don Bosco to show that he was an ordinary man who worked hard to make things possible and do things in an extraordinary way for poor and abandoned youngsters.

The backdrop was well decorated by Miss Swati Furtado, the flower arrangements by Miss Helen Fernandes, the liturgy by Miss Lianne Barretto, the singing and music by Mr. Haydn Dias and the boarders. The photography by Sir Dayanand.

There were a number of Cooperators, Past Pupils, Benefactors and parents who were present for the Eucharist.

After the gospel the boarders put up an action song on the life of Don Bosco.

I take this opportunity to once again wish one and all a Very Happy Feast of St. John Bosco. May he inspire us to be innovative and creative as he was, ahead of his times for the young.

'Love what the young love, and they will love what you love.' DB
