Australian Salesian Bulletin
The Australian Salesian Bulletin was first published in 1955. The purpose of the Salesian Bulletin, according to the mind of St John Bosco, is to be informational and formational. It endeavours to keep its readers abreast of the main events in the Church and the Congregation on the local and worldwide level with particular attention to the overseas missions. The Australian Salesian Bulletin maintains a focus on youth issues. Copies of the Bulletin are available on this LINK.

Salesian's of Don Bosco
If you haven't discovered already, Don Bosco simply means Father John Bosco. John Bosco developed teaching methods based on love rather than punishment, a method that became known as the Salesian Preventative System. A follower of the St Francis de Sales, Bosco dedicated his works to him when he founded the Salesians of Don Bosco, based in Turin, Italy.
This link is not a publication, but rather the website for the Salesian's in Australia and the Pacific. It will provide you with all the knowledge you desire on Don Bosco and the Salesians.
