After a huge effort and despite many setbacks the new build for St. John Bosco's College, Liverpool is almost a reality reality. After just missing a new build with the Building Schools for the Future programme, and after much work trying to find other ways working closely with Merseyside Council and the local MP the long dreamed new build was given the green light.

Building work began in the summer of 2013, the expectation is that the building and interior work will be complete so the school can open for the new scholastic year in September 2014. As can be seen from the photos the school is large and very bright both inside and out.

It is hoped that this new development in Croxteth, which builds on a long history of involvement of the Sisters with the school, will continue to provide an excellent education for the many girls who will attend the new school and benefit the local community by offering a venue for community events.

It is a sign of hope and joy for the future education of many young girls as it will offer state of the art facilities in a Salesian atmosphere. 

The Salesian Sisters are trustees of St John Bosco Arts College and have been very involved since the school opened in 1965, originally under the name of Mary Help of Christians High School.
