Don Bosco Tetere Rural Training Centre Graduation supports World Youth Day 2008

TETERE (SI): 5th December 2007 -- On Friday 30th November, Don Bosco Tetere celebrated its 2nd Graduation Day.  The programme began with a Thanksgiving Eucharistic celebration at Christ the King Parish Hall presided over by Fr Cor Hooymayers SM, Chancellor of the Archdiocese of Honiara.  In his homily he highlighted a need of the Solomon Islands - for people who can work with their hands.  He congratulated the 22 graduates on their completing a two year training in Agriculture with an additional training in Mechanics, Carpentry or Welding.
    The Graduation rite took place at 10.00 am. Officers from the Ministry of Agriculture and the RTC Centre could not attend, though they were scheduled to be there. Joseph Heno, Head Boy for the 1st Year, welcomed the assembly. Mr David Huang, leader of the Taiwan Technical Mission, with three of his helpers, attended the function and gave an inspiring message, distributing certificates to the students who had completed a six month practical training at the Taiwan Mission.
    Fr Dominic Kachira SDB, Centre Director, expressed the hope that the graduates would be a blessing to their families, the community and the nation, by using their knowledge and skills creatively.
    Fr Cor blessed the certificates and prizes which were distributed to deserving graduates and undergraduates for outstanding performance. A sponsorship of SID  4,000 was awarded to each of two meritorious students who would represent the Centre at the World Youth Day 2008 in Sydney.  Bro Tanaka SDB, Principal, awarded the same to Miss Evalyn Veni and Master Andrew Mose.  Cash obtained from the sale of agricultural products gained from student effort was distributed amongst graduates.
