World Teachers Day DBTI Henderson

The SRC (Student Representative Council) of Don Bosco Technical Institute, Henderson put on their thinking caps to arrange a fun celebration for the teachers of DBTI. The celebrations started with the Students lining the sides of the Gymnasium as teachers walked in to the sounds of cheers and clapping, the students then hung garlands of flowers around the teachers’ necks to show honour and appreciation.
After special thank-you to the teachers and speeches of appreciation by the Rector Fr. Srimal and students’ leader, the afternoon continued with games fun and much laughter. The friendly competitions between staff members and students had both students and staff cheering and laughing. Games included noodle eating races, Apple on a string eating races and balloon bursting competitions. The smiles on the faces of everyone proved that the celebrations were a great success. The teachers concluded the day with lots of yummy ice cream.

Editorial
Don Bosco

Don Bosco was creative, enthusiastic and enterprising in his work. He wrote and edited booklets, school texts, histories, digests, magazines, fliers, plays. From his earliest years as a priest, Don Bosco communicated through his whole demeanour and person, through games, talking, visiting, preaching, and publishing. Communicating through the internet and publishing is a priority for Salesians. Inspired by this example of Don Bosco and the early Salesians, Social Communication continues an important priority.
