On 25th November 2025, Don Bosco School, Trasi celebrated Mamma Margaret’s Day in a grand manner to show respect and reverence towards all the Co-Teaching Staff of the school. This special day is dedicated to honouring Mamma Margaret, the Mother of our School Patron, St. John Bosco, who contributed greatly in taking care of the youngsters who came from underprivileged families.

Honouring the service and dedication of the Support and Transport Staff of the school, there was a celebration in the School Auditorium under the theme: “The Divinity Hidden in Service”. They were all warmly greeted on to the dais as the Chief Guests for the day, along with the Rector and Principal, Rev. Fr. Maxim D’Souza, the Vice Principal, Rev. Fr.

He encouraged the students to greet the co-teaching staff as they are the first person the students meet every day and thank them when they drop them off from school.
