Government Higher Secondary School Barghat Girls

You can find us at Old No 8 New No 15, Millers Road in Kilpauk. We are the Government Higher Secondary School Barghat Girls. Kilpauk is a nice area, quite green compared to other parts, but our school is just a plain government building. It’s a place for girls to come and finish their schooling. The building has that old Chennai feel to it, with thick walls and high ceilings in some rooms. We have a lot of students coming from various parts of the city because Millers Road is fairly central. Every morning is the same routine with the assembly and the singing. The desks are old-fashioned and some of the chairs wobble a bit. We don't spend money on fancy decorations. Most of our walls just have old maps or maybe some student drawings pinned up. The teachers are usually busy with registers and lesson plans. It’s a quiet place during class hours, but when the bell rings for lunch, it’s a lot of chattering and laughing. We try to keep the place tidy, but with so many kids, it’s a constant job. We’ve been at this address for a long time. People in Kilpauk recognize the uniform. There’s no big marketing team here. It’s just the principal, the teachers, and the students trying to get through the syllabus every year without too much fuss.
