Oz Bosco is an annual Salesian Youth Event. It is a weekend of Joy, Fun, Friends, Faith and Festivity, with special guest speakers, workshops, Prayer and Liturgy, group sessions and a variety of recreational activities. Oz Bosco is open for young people from 15-25 years. Youth teams, students, youth leaders and anyone connected with the Salesians of Don Bosco who would like to attend are welcome. It is a wonderful opportunity for young people to meet and focus on being connected to the same Salesian family.
Each year Oz Bosco centralises around the Salesian Strenna, with this year’s Strenna being ‘Holiness for you, too.’ Throughout the weekend, the boys explored this theme through an Amazing Race to create a modern day saint, breaking into ‘oratory’ groups for discussion and a variety of workshops that gave them time to reflect on what holiness and happiness means to them.
I congratulate the following boys who attended Oz Bosco this year on their openness and honesty throughout the weekend, and their reflectiveness on how they can be modern day saints.
