Bus shelters
It has become mandatory to have text in Kannada on outdoor advertising. We at Brigade have responded to this positively.

Our Kannada lines, therefore, do not merely try to conform. They are beautiful, evocative lines from Kannada poetry.

A new identity for our school: The Brigade School

The Brigade School, located on the Brigade Millennium campus, was established as a trademark sharing and consultancy between the Brigade Foundation and PSBB Schools, Chennai.

Owing to certain circumstances, Brigade Foundation has terminated the relationship with PSBB this March. From the inception, all the teachers have been appointed by Brigade Foundation, and are fully committed to the all-round development of the children of the school. The high standards that have been set in both academic and extra-curricular areas —standards that have earned the school its reputation as a place of excellence—will continue.
