Project no 6: FIRST AID ROOM
At St. Britto High School, playground is like a cradle of joy to the thousand five hundred plus boys who come to the school. Though there is ample of place to play, there is also enough opportunity to pick up an injury too. An urgent need was felt to have a First Aid room for the school. Come the summer break and work began on the much needed First Aid Room.
The management of St. Britto High School and the Jubilee Committee would like to thank Dr. Esmarch and Dr. Priya de Sousa for sponsoring this First Aid Room.
Injuries will come and go, but the school will be able to offer some care and comfort to the boys through this project.

In its Jubilee Year, celebrating 75 glorious years in dedicated service, St Britto High School bore a new look. Come June 5 and the students were pleasantly surprised to see that the school pretty much looked like them. The Blue and Grey was all over.
Keeping in mind the ongoing Platinum Jubilee Celebrations, the Jubilee Committee with the help of the generous donations made by the parents took up the job of giving the exterior of the school a much needed facelift with a fresh coat of paint. Britto colours were the theme. A deliberate attempt to cement that bond between a Britto Boy and his alma mater. For the first time the boys saw their house colours boldly displayed for all to see. To a stranger it may need some explanation but to every Britto Boy it all makes sense and brings home the message that Britto was, is and will always be Home.

St. BRITTO HIGH SCHOOL PLATINUM JUBILEE YEAR 2023, Project no 4:
Jesuit education and aesthetic values. We are striving to help our students to develop aesthetic values by giving them a taste of professional art work. The assembly hall at the center of the school building is the most frequented place in the campus.

Thanks to the PTA for suggesting this project and special thanks to Ms. Ana Clara for raising funds for this project.
PROJECT NO.2 : REPLACEMENT OF WATER TANKS
We are glad to have completed our second project..The water tanks were built almost 40 yrs back. They have stood the test of times and served their purpose. The difficulty was to clean and maintain these tanks due to their eccentric position. Hence, it was decided to change these tanks as a Jubilee project.
The PTA and management of St Britto High School would like to thank the parents of Jadon,Samuel and Raphael Remedios( Primary Boys) for sponsoring the water tanks. We appreciate their noble gesture.
The Shed for the water tanks is also newly fabricated..We would like to thank all the parents, ex- students and benefactors who have been supporting us towards the Jubilee projects.
Let us move forward with a single aim – “STRIVING TOWARDS HUMAN EXCELLENCE”.

ANOTHER DREAM PROJECT IN PROGRESS.
After installing the solar plant it was planned to make the life of our students more comfortable in class. Hence, it was decided to have a canteen day once a month and the income generated will be spent to increase the fans from two to four in each class and to five in bigger classes. It was also decided that two fans and the lights will be connected to the backup system. While the secondary side is work is near completion the work for the school office, staff room, science lab, and the primary wing will commence soon. Our main aim is to slowly put a backup system for all the fans thus making good use of the solar plant.
We thank the OBA, parents and benefactors for their generous contribution towards this project. It has encouraged us to start this project faster than expected.
We hope we will continue to get such support so that our larger dreams may be fulfilled.
We thank the electricians for working after school hours till late in the evening.
Short report (By Bro. Nigel our main architect for the solar plant and now this project)
With the Solar power plant installed recently that is been providing for the school's energy requirement. We now have a newly installed power backup system that indirectly draws power from the solar inverter. We have installed the latest power saving led lighting and Bldc power saver fans in each classroom to make sure our students do not have to face inconveniences due to the constant power cuts and teaching and learning can go on smoothly.
