Being a globally-minded school definitely has its advantages.
Nothing broadens the horizons like seeing what’s beyond the horizon. So Branksome Hall, in addition to our sister school on Jeju Island, South Korea, has cultivated several international relationships. They provide the opportunity for travel and service trips abroad.
In Queenstown, South Africa, the Get Ahead Project School has partnered with Branksome Hall and Toronto's Rose Avenue Public School to form the "Triangle of Hope." Together, students from the three schools work to increase cultural understanding and friendship.
A service trip to Costa Rica each year gives Grades 10-11 students the chance to learn about issues related to environmental sustainability and live with local families to learn about their customs and culture.

Land Acknowledgement
We wish to acknowledge this land on which Branksome operates. For thousands of years, it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit River. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous peoples from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work and go to school on this land.
