Alumni Reviews Review School
Review
Description
Branksome was where I grew braver fast. The school didn鈥檛 just reward academic excellence as it celebrated empathy, innovation, and leadership. As the only Canadian recipient of the McEuen Scholarship, I owe a lot to. . .
Branksome gave me more than equations and engineering, it gave me a whole world of possibility. The all girls environment wasn鈥檛 about excluding others but it felt like a space crafted for us to explore. . .
Branksome felt like a second home. The IB program started in Grade 7 which was unique, but what stuck with me even more was how we were taught to understand how we learn, not just. . .
