Head of School's Report
Since its founding, Balmoral Hall School has cultivated a reputation for leadership in girls’ education. From the women who were the first in their matriarchal lineage to pursue post-secondary education to the girls who will someday create jobs that do not exist yet, our alumnae are perpetually ahead of their time. So much has changed in the past century, including early childhood, primary, and secondary education. What remains are our values.
We believe all-girls education must be balanced.
We believe globally minded citizens act with compassion and integrity.
We believe lifelong learning is built upon curiosity, creativity, resiliency, and innovation.
Global trends indicate that arts and culture continue to fuel economic growth thanks to the rise of creative industries. We prepare our students for a future in which creativity will be one of their greatest assets with an emphasis on teaching and learning in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM).
Alumnae and parents of graduates know that Balmoral Hall School is the best choice for girls’ education.
We offer a supportive environment for girls’ learning with a strong sense of community. We encourage the love of learning in a place of belonging that nurtures resilience, inspires creativity, and celebrates diversity. We make sure every BH girl graduates with purpose.
As in 17/18, our boldness continued in 2018–19 with more awards and accolades for our faculty and staff, more scholarships, bursaries, and internships for our students, and more contributions to our Centre for Arts & Design, with $5.1 million raised as of June 30, 2019.
With enrolment steadily rising from Child Care to Grade 12, endowment tripling over the past 10 years, and most metrics signifying growth, our strategic outlook is positive.
With your support, we persist in pursuing excellence for our students, for ourselves, and for our future.
Joanne Kamins, Head of School
