Balmoral Hall School, a private boarding school for girls in Winnipeg, has broken ground on a $6-million initiative it hopes will land more young women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics fields.
Construction began Thursday on an 18,000-square-foot building, which will serve as a centre for arts and design.
"It’s a journey we started about five years ago, and after a winding journey, here we are today, breakingground," Joanne Kamins, head of Balmoral Hall, said on Thursday.
