DON BOSCO HIGH SCHOOL - MATUNGA: 
VALUE EDUCATION ORIENTATION for STD X D / E
November 26, 2013: Fr. Glenford Lowe spent two sessions with ninety five STD X  students of Don Bosco High School Matunga. The theme for the day was "Living by a Value Compass'. He enabled to students to focus on the gift of the present NOW by listening attentively to their inner self. In the second session, like Steve Jobs, the students were invited to 'connect the dots' of their past on the Spiral of Life and finally to Reorganize their future by resetting their 'Wheel of Life'.
In a very playful way, yet with a ting of deep insights and moments for personal reflection and group sharing, the young students were invited to focus on life beyond their examinations. One could see the seriousness with which the students ran through their entire life in a span of an hour and a half. Speaking on various issues that defocuses a young mind and heart, Fr.
