Today, August 16, 2026, Don Bosco Technical Institute of Victorias, Inc. commemorates the 211th birthday of Saint John Bosco, the Father and Teacher of the Youth.
Saint John Bosco devoted his entire life to the service of the poor, abandoned, and street children. To the Bosconian community, Don Bosco holds great significance as he regarded the youth as his own children. The spirit of Don Bosco continues to be carried through the practice of his Preventive System: ๐๐๐๐จ๐ค๐ฃ, ๐๐๐ก๐๐๐๐ค๐ฃ, ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐๐ค๐ซ๐๐ฃ๐ ๐๐๐ฃ๐๐ฃ๐๐จ๐จ, which serves as the foundation of formation in Don Bosco schools.
Saint John Bosco remains a model for the Bosconian community, inspiring us to become good Christians and honest citizens, and his teachings continue to shape the mission and identity of DBTI. His example challenges the youth to embrace responsibility, practice integrity, and live out values of faith, compassion, and solidarity in their daily lives.
As we honor his 211th birthday, may the legacy of Saint John Bosco continue to guide the DBTI community. May his spirit of dedication to the youth inspire students, faculty, and staff to uphold the Salesian charism and to contribute meaningfully to the development of society.
Happy 211th Birthday, Saint John Bosco.
