by Father Bosco Caralho for BISMumbai

The Don Bosco Snehalaya boys gathered around their teachers and felicitated them on 04 September 2021, in commemoration of Teachers Day. The theme chosen for the day was 'You are our Superstars'.

In the morning, Father Bosco Carvalho, the Prefect of Studies, along with Jitendra Macwana, a staff member, visited the schools to which our boys go and felicitated the Principal and teachers with a card, a bar of chocolate and a handmade flower piece. The teachers appreciated this kind gesture and thoughtfulness on the part of our Snehalaya boys.

In the afternoon, the boys staged a program for the in-house teachers. The confreres and staff members were present for this function. The comperes, Rahul and Akash, entertained the audience with their Rocky Bhai tapori acting and dialogues. Highlights of the program included a skit entitled 'Bina Teachers Zindagi Barbaad', a song 'O Teachers Shukriya' and a retro dance fusion of Shammi Kapoor's famous songs. The teachers then performed a special dance 'Follow the Leader' for all the kids. A creative speech was delivered by Kalpesh and Jatin personally thanking each teacher for their sacrifice and concern at all times. The boys displayed their appreciation towards the teachers by gifting them a card, a bar of chocolate and a handmade flower piece. They organized a fun treasure hunt for the teachers which was both competitive and enjoyable. The program ended with an energetic dance session.

The boys took pains to prepare handmade cards and personally thanked each teacher for their availability and love. One of the boys, Rahul Goswami, said of the teachers, "We are stars, but you are superstars."
