Overview
About Montfort Brothers
St. LOUIS MARIE GRINGNION De MONTFORT was a great visionary catholic priest who lived in France in the 17th Century. The religious congregation of the Montfort Brothers of St. Gabriel was founded by this great visionary St. Louis de Montfort in 1705. Three French Brothers from France came to India in 1903 as missionaries and began the Montfortian Education Mission by establishing a technical school for the poor village boys in Tindivanam – Tamil Nādu.
Their strong commitment and dedication to develop the poor children with academic and skill-based education bore great fruits. They have since then expanded their reach to include schools, colleges, and universities in many countries around the world. Their aim is to focus and provide quality education that promotes values such as justice, integrity. respect for human dignity, peace, and solidarity among all people.
The education mission of the Brothers at Montfort School, Kattur today is under the management of a team of Brothers with Bro. Robert as the Principal & Correspondent, Bro. Christuraj as the Vice Principal and the former Principal Bro. Dhanaraj as the Administrator. The Brothers are ably assisted by the collaboration of the Cluny Sisters for more than 30 years.
