Savio Week was organized online from 27 June to 06 July. There were mainly three activities in the course of the week. These were online competitions on the life of St. Dominic Savio organized only for the boarders. Three were selected in each of the competitions. Participation of the boys was very good as many came up with their own creativity whether it was drawing, poems, or videos on the life of St. Dominic Savio; and their love for him was seen in the way they participated in the competitions. Savio week ended with a solemn Mass celebrated online for the entire school.
