Branksome Hall`s new iCAST is already making headlines!

Toronto Star writer Jessica Aftimus Rosa attended our launch ceremony on September 17. Her feature highlights the different spaces inside our new Karen L. Jurjevich Innovation Centre and Studio Theatre (iCAST), and the ways that students are already using the building for robotics, broadcasting, performance and more. From Kindergarten to Grade 12, we have redesigned our curriculum to make sure at least two units per grade live in iCAST.
