BORIVLI, MARCH 27, 2012: It takes a moment to say 'Hello' but years to say farewell. As the staff and students of the Pre- Primary and Primary Sections bid farewell to our Rev. Fr. Ronald Menezes, Rector of Don Bosco High School Borivli, we also felt the same. We were initiated into a solemn prayer. A heart warming and an appreciative address to Rev. Fr. Rector was indeed, lovingly expressed on behalf of all the Boscoites, The students of Std. IV presented a wonderful dance, with their angels so pure, peaceful and pious leaving an imprint, certainly on the minds of Our Rector.
A token of love was given by our School Captain, Mst. Ninad Chaphekar and Mrs. Dorothy Gomes on behalf of the Primary section. The teachers sang a melodious song each one unanimously expressing the fact that we shall miss Fr. Ronnie immensely.
Father Principal, who has learnt a lot from him, expressed that Rev. Fr. Rector has always taught and added to these lines "Love what the children love and the children will love you for it…
Make them feel and tell them they are Loved."
Make them feel and tell them they are Loved."
In this techno-savvy world, Fr. Rector in his speech transformed (P.P.T) power point presentation to be more meaningful and value educative. Now our kids know that apart from the computer software, there is a school software of

An album which was painstakingly prepared by Our Headmistress, Mrs. Marina D'Souza has the emotions of the Primary and Pre-Primary teachers put down in words, encased within… A valuable thought encasing with the strings of love tied by our Head-mistress.

The books and inspiring talks,
