Ongole, 10th October 2015: It was a special day for the first batch of DBTECH students at Don Bosco, Ongole. They had their Valedictory Function, after successfully completing their three months of training in Electrical, Hospitality and Retail and Sales. The programme began with a prayer song. Fr.Santiagu Thomas, the Rector of Don Bosco, Ongole welcomed the gathering.
Fr. Arul Das, the Director of Bosco Seva Kendra, the development office and the State Head of DBTECH was the chief Guest. In his message he appreciated and congratulated the students who successfully completed the training. He spoke of the importance of LIFE: Love, Integrity, Faith and Endurance. He gave certificates to all the students who successfully completed their training. Out of 79 students who enrolled in the training 70 of them successfully completed their training. The electrical students were given a small tool kit as a gift from Don Bosco. Fr. M.D.Sebastian , the Administrator of Don Bosco, Ongole gave ‘Pencil Parable’ message to the students.
It was indeed a memorable day for all the students. Three of the students shared their experience at Don Bosco and how their stay and training at Don Bosco changed their life, gave new purpose and direction to their life. It was very difficult for the students to bid farewell to each other as Don Bosco had become their home. We wish them all the best as they are going to take up different jobs in their respective domains.
