History
[edit]
Colégio Dom Bosco (Yuet Wah) was originally an orphanage (Asilo dos Orfaos) which was run by the Salesians, specifically accommodating Portuguese orphans. In 1941, since the Portuguese Salesians did not have their own premises, the orphans had to stay in the Immaculate Conception Orphanage (now Instituto Salesiano) with the Chinese orphans.
Because of a number of problems, the foundation stone[[ laying ceremony was delayed until 1949, and the school was named Colégio Dom Bosco de Artes Oficios, and later referred to as Colégio Dom Bosco.
The Salesians started to use part of the new building in 1951 providing technical and vocational education.
The curriculum was the same as that used in government schools. In addition, the school provided mechanics, typing, computer and other programs for many years. This led to the development of technical education in Macau. The Choir, “Little Singers of the Wooden Cross” was founded by Fr. Cesare Brianza and proved to be not just an extra-curricular activity. He drew the greatest satisfaction from the many concerts and church performances given by this Choir for almost thirty years in Macau and other countries. He founded this well-known Choir in 1959 and brought it to a remarkable standard of artistic excellence.
The construction of the school was completed in 1963.
In 1976, the school closed the industrial course and set up junior high programs.
The Portuguese kindergarten was opened in 1982.
The Chinese Section was founded in 1991. It was managed by Fr. Luigi Rubini SDB.
Meanwhile, Fr. Francis Hung, SDB took over the post of principal from Fr. Luigi Rubini SDB. In 1999, the first group of students are graduated, and the Portuguese Section of Colégio Dom Bosco was closed.
For the better development of the Salesian school in Macau, it was decided to merge Colégio Dom Bosco with Yuet Wah College, and our school was finally named COLÉGIO DOM BOSCO (YUET WAH). After the merger, Yuet Wah College moved all the primary students of the English and the Chinese Sections to the school.
And in 2001, the school exchanged all 10 kindergarten classes with the 10 primary classes from Colégio Perpétuo Socorro Chan Sui Ki - Sucursal.
