school_mottoKeep the flame burning and light up the others.
school_missionOur school carries on the pedagogy of St. John Bosco, the founder of the Salesian Society, who has possessed the belief, conviction and experience to invite priests, educators, parents and the people concerned to join in the nurturing of young people as a family. They will recognise reason, loving kindness, and religion as inflexible need to make their presence felt, and cultivate them in different environment and activities. Each pupil shall feel they are guided and loved by knowledge and morality with equilibrium in personal growth as a member in God's family.
