Centenary

1924 to 2024 - 100 years of British Education in Rio de Janeiro

In 2024, The British School, Rio de Janeiro is celebrating the 100th anniversary of its founding. We would like to take this historic opportunity to show our appreciation to all the past and current students, parents and staff. We now share with you some of the plans for the school’s Centenary celebrations.

 

• The week from Monday 20th to Friday 24th May will be ‘Centenary Week’ in which the school’s history will be discussed and celebrated in various ways across all the sites, with Music Festival/Talent Show and other events across the three sites.

 

• Thursday, May 23rd is the official Founder’s Day. We shall be holding street parties on each site (Urca, Botafogo and Barra) with the official unveiling of the commemorative plaque.

 

• A TAABS Centenary Reunion – for alumni and former staff – will be held at Botafogo on Saturday 31st August. Please, answer the Google form by 30 May 2024

 

We also kindly ask you to help us spread the word and share this message with your school friends!
