Living with Joy and Holiness – Celebrating the Spirit of St Dominic Savio at Don Bosco High School, Panjim

The feast of St Dominic Savio was celebrated with great devotion and enthusiasm at Don Bosco High School, Panjim. The day began with special prayer services and Holy Masses organised for all sections of the school – Primary, Middle, and High School – invoking God’s blessings and seeking the intercession of the young saint.

Throughout the day, students engaged in various activities inspired by the life and virtues of St Dominic Savio. A short inspirational movie on his life was screened in classrooms, highlighting his deep faith, cheerful spirit, and commitment to doing ordinary things in extraordinary ways. Following the screening, an interactive quiz based on his life encouraged students to reflect on his values and teachings. A milk chocolate treat on the celebration day added an extra touch of joy to the students’ experience of the feast.

Creative class-based activities such as poster-making, storytelling, and reflective writing further helped students understand the relevance of Dominic Savio's life in today’s world. The celebration concluded with students taking home a message of holiness, kindness, and service.

As St Dominic Savio once said, “I am not capable of doing big things, but I want everything I do, even the smallest thing, to be done for the greater glory of God.”

His life continues to be a shining example for young minds to live with purpose and purity.
