History
Don Bosco, Irinjalakuda, began in March 1962 on the invitation of the late Bishop of Thrissur, Rt Rev George Alappatt. Soon a High School, a Lower Primary School and a boarding were started. It began as an English-medium and a Malayalam-medium school and the Government sanctioned the Don Bosco High School as an unaided but recognised school on 6th May 1962. The Malayalam-medium section was discontinued later. A boarding section too was started on 2nd January 1963, which was closed later on. In 1987 a spacious indoor stadium was built to commemorate the Silver Jubilee of the Institution, and to provide better facilities.
