It is also his 85th year as a saint and the 204th year of his birth. Don Bosco often tell his boys, “Do your ordinary duties extraordinarily well.” This saying has stayed on every Bosconian’s heart. It is part of our upbringing. Whenever we are at play, we give it our best shot. When we study, we exert effort to learn a so many things. In every task we do, no matter how small, it is innate in us to do our best to achieve it. In today’s environment, where there are so many distractions and hindrances in our daily ac- tivities, we Bosconians are called to be courageous and be an example in living the faith and follow the teachings of the Catholic church. Let us challenge ourselves to do our ordinary duties extraordinarily well and live our life to the fullest and prepare ourselves for greater things. Ascende Superius! Happy Feast day to everyone! Yours in Don Bosco, Engr. Fletcher Von G. Aquino Alumni President (2016-2020) Don Bosco Mandaluyong Alumni Association, Inc. 7
