The evening of 22nd July 2015 was indeed delightful and motivating. The day received its flavour because 45 students from Std 5 to  std 9 attended the inaugural session of the Don Bosco English literary club for the academic year 2015-2016.

The club was privileged to have the presence of Fr. Bernard, the Principal,accompanied by the A.H.M. Mrs. Beatrice, Supervisor Mrs. Barbara, the school librarian Mrs. Flavia, English dept. Head Mrs. Perpetual and the English faculty-Mrs.Reena, Ms.sonali and Ms. Pallavi, and the club in-charge Mrs. Elizabeth and Mrs. Vandana.

It was a great sight to see the enthusiasm of the students and the joy to learn and enjoy the English language. The students were given the gist of the activities lined out for the year and the days slated for sessions every month viz. the 2nd and 4th Wednesday after school from 4pm to 5pm.

The talk by the Principal was motivating and the students were glad to know that their  Principal himself loved reading. His experience of having met authors and writers did inspire the young minds. He wished the club all the best for all their future activities. Fr. Principal also encouraged the students to take part in the Times NIE (a student edition of Times newspaper) activities and workshops.

 It was indeed a fruitful evening to spend quality time with the young.
