The Congregation of the Brothers of St. Patrick was founded by Bishop Daniel Delany in the year 1808. The Congregation derives its name from the Great Apostle of Ireland, St. Patrick, who in his time fought ignorance, injustice, wickedness and immorality, just as our founder did in his own time. The founder realized that the root of universal demoralization was ignorance and hence he began to impart moral education. He had in mind the religious, moral and literary education of children in schools.
The Brothers came to India in 1875 and took charges of a large Anglo Indian Orphanage and School in Chennai. This seed has grown into a large tree spreading its branches to various parts of the country, producing thousand of eminent men and women who have contributed and continue to contribute to the country in various capacities.
In our commitment to serve people, we find our primary inspiration in the life and teachings of JESUS CHRIST, we experience anxiety in this period of rapid change as we are beckoned beyond the bounds of safe securities. However, like the founding Patricians, we will step forward in faith with the courage of convictions and rely on the power of the Almighty God.
WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT: Our apostolic endeavors are inspired and nurtured by the Good News of Jesus Christ.
The Congregation of the Brothers of St. Patrick or the Patrician Brothers as they are popularly known began in the small town of Tullow, Ireland on 2nd February, 1808...

The Kannada festival, which we celebrate once a year, our Kannada Rajyotsava, was once again celebrated in our school this year with great enthusiasm and grandeur. The event, conducted by the Kannada students of Class 9, was of exceptionally high quality.
The celebration began with our school principal hoisting the flag. The students then paid their respects to our state by singing the Naadageethe (state anthem). The cultural programs started with a prayer dance dedicated to River Kaveri, delighting everyone. Students presented speeches with clear and meaningful articulation about our land, language, and the history behind Kannada Rajyotsava, making it understandable and impactful for all. A dance drama followed, which resonated deeply with the audience. The students depicted the story of the fearless Obavva, who sacrificed her life for Karnataka, in a captivating performance.
Jai Karnataka Maate!
