Don Bosco English Medium School Savedi launched its official YouTube Channel on 16 August 2020, the 205th birth anniversary of Don Bosco. Rector and Manager Father Vishwas Pereira launched the channel. Father James Tuscano-Principal Don Bosco Vidyalaya Marathi Medium School lauded the efforts of the English Medium to be relevant in the digital age. Principal Father Justus Mendis recognized and appreciated the efforts of all the teachers and students, especially thanking teachers George and Nilesh for their technical expertise in launching the channel.

After the inauguration, the class teachers shared a short movie on Johnny Bosco, via Google Meet and organized a discussion-sharing among the students. The teachers then shared the link of the English Medium YouTube channel and watched their uploaded class activity videos. The students were thrilled to watch themselves on YouTube and were enthused to participate in the further activities of the school.

The prime purpose for the launch of the YouTube Channel is to give a platform to the students to present their talents, as the COVID-19 lockdown has unfortunately restricted the display of students' talents on the school stage. Through this channel the class teachers will also upload the videos of different class-activities. The parents too appreciated the school for this initiative.
