DON BOSCO LOUTOLIM
Don Bosco School situated on the hilly terrain of Loutolim was founded in 1994 by the Salesians of Don Bosco. It began with very humble beginnings with the Salesians living in a practically dilapidated bungalow which served as the residence, chapel, hostel and workshop for those interested in learning a trade.Initially the institute educated boys who did not finish their schooling studies and found no way or place to be educated.
In the year 1998, realizing the great work done for the marginalized sector of society the Belgian Government came forward to put up the state of the art building, workshops, computer lab and fully equipped audio visual hall. The greenery and scenic beauty around lends itself for serious learning.
