Don Bosco High School

We are located on Don Bosco Marg in Yerawada. If you’ve been in Pune for a while, you probably know where that is. The 411006 area is pretty crowded these days. The school has been around for ages, so the buildings look a bit old now. We have high ceilings and those thick walls that keep things a little cooler in the summer. There’s a big playground where the kids play football and cricket. You can hear them shouting from a block away when there’s a game going on. The main road outside is always busy with rickshaws and buses. It’s a bit of a struggle to get through the gates during drop-off time. We have a lot of history here, but we don’t talk about it in a fancy way. It’s just where we work every day. The trees in the yard are quite big now, providing some shade. Inside, the floors are a bit worn down from thousands of shoes walking over them. We have many classrooms and they are usually full. Some of the desks are old, maybe from when I was much younger. We just keep things running. It’s a local landmark for people living in Yerawada. Everyone knows the school bell. It’s not a quiet place, but it’s home for us. We spend a lot of time cleaning the chalkboards and fixing the fans. It’s just a steady, busy place that has been part of the city for years.
