Voices of hope

Balmoral Hall School has long been a forum of critical, creative thinking, and this has been evident as of late in increased community awareness; February has been a month of activism with students taking action to make a difference in their city, in their country, and in their world.

From Plan Canada's Spread the Net Student Challenge to a memorial art installation led by Fariba Ishrar, a Grade 11 student who is studying Indigenous issues, Balmoral Hall School's classrooms, hallways, and offices are buzzing.

Now, local news leaders, international changemakers, and many others are joining these conversations.

Below is an outline of recent media relations. Engagement on Balmoral Hall School's social media furthers these efforts. Thank you for your consideration.
