Mount St. Mary’s Wins Don Bosco Inter-School Bible Quiz
Don Bosco School, Alaknanda once again buzzed with youthful energy and biblical scholarship as it hosted the 15th Inter School/Parish Bible Quiz, a much-anticipated annual gathering for young Scripture enthusiasts. Nineteen spirited teams from across the National Capital Region converged on the campus, eager to test their knowledge, faith, and quick thinking in a competition that has grown into a cherished tradition.
The day began with a rigorous written elimination round that trimmed the group to eight finalists: Mount St. Mary’s School (Teams 1 and 2), St. Mary’s Senior Secondary School (Teams 1 and 2), Holy Child Auxilium, Vasant Vihar, Sacred Heart Cathedral, Mater Dei School, and St. Joseph Academy, Dilshad Garden.
These finalists then battled through eight intellectually stimulating rounds covering themes from the Gospel of Mark and the Book of Genesis to the Life of Don Bosco, St. Alphonsa, and the Seven Capital Sins and Virtues. The excitement peaked during the Audio-Visual and Rapid-Fire rounds, which demanded sharp recall and split-second accuracy. Quiz Masters Fr. Davis Maniparamben, Mr. Joshy George, and Ms. Marlyn Mervin kept the audience engaged with their energetic and seamless coordination.
In a gripping finish, Mount St. Mary’s School claimed the championship title. St. Mary’s Senior Secondary School Team 2 took second place, while Team 1 followed closely in third. Winners received certificates, medals, and cash prizes, and all participants were honoured with certificates of participation, acknowledging their preparation and enthusiastic involvement.
Organised with dedication by the Association of Salesian Co-operators, Okhla Unit, along with ADMA members, the event was graced by Chief Guest Fr. Mathew Koyickal, Deputy Secretary General and Director of the CBCI Centre, whose presence added inspiration to an already memorable day of learning, faith, and friendly competition.
