Publicaciones institucionales // School Publications
Durante las vacaciones de invierno se distribuyó el tradicional anuario The Evergreen (2011-2012), una edición con 24 páginas más a todo color y una tapa especial, con motivo del Centenario.
Asimismo, se encuentra en preparación el folleto Belgrano Day School. Primer centenario y después // First Centenary and Beyond, una publicación que complementará el libro, publicado justo antes de que comenzaran a celebrarse los cien años.
En tal sentido, el folleto tendrá dos partes: la primera, que ilustra los principales festejos realizados con motivo del Centenario, y la segunda (más conceptual), que presenta tres líneas de trabajo y profundización del proyecto educativo del BDS, con las cuales el Colegio enfrenta los desafíos del siglo XXI y se aventura al porvenir.
Esas líneas son: la Educación en Valores, la creciente autonomía de los alumnos enmarcada en el concepto de «Aprender a aprender«, y el Internacionalismo de alcance y proyección globales. El brochure se repartirá ampliamente entre la comunidad (familias & staff) y estará oportunamente disponible también en formato digital.
Last but not least, continuamos recibiendo colaboraciones para el blog Historias del Centenario, que cuenta con los aportes de exalumnos (y exdocentes) de las más variadas generaciones, muchísimas fotos y material que no llegó a entrar en el libro. Los invitamos a visitarlo y a dejar sus comentarios.

I was at the school in the years 1944 and 1945 and I would love to see a copy of The Evergreen of those years. I have very happy memories of those days which I tell my grandchildren. I live in Perth Australia having left Argentina in 1950 to go to Africa where I married and spent 40 years before moving to Perth in Western Australia to be near my two grown up children and 6 grandchildren all who at one time and another visited Argentina the last time was in 2008 to celebrate my mothers 100th birthday and she managed to live up to 101. I still have two sisters and one brother living in Argentina.
Dear John, so nice to hear /read of Old Facrecteans around the world!

Dear Claudia
Thank you so much for your kind words and I would love to visit my old school of many happy memories. My brother in law Frankie Forrester married to my sister Monica and living in Martinez whose father was the late Donald Forrester whom also was an old boy as were the famous Ailing brothers whom I use to play cricket with at San Isidro.
The chances of visiting Argentina are small due to my age of 87 years but maybe one day the lotto will came to my aid..
Once again thank you for your prompt reply and keep on with your wonderful work
Kind regards
