Introducing Roots x Branksome Hall
Branksome Hall has partnered with Roots Canada to offer an exclusive collection of co-branded apparel, now available at The Shop. The collection merges Branksome Hall’s spirit and tradition with Roots’ iconic Canadian style, allowing the Branksome community to showcase their school pride with a uniquely Canadian touch.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with Branksome on this special apparel collection,” shared Meghan Roach, Roots CEO and Branksome parent. “At Roots, we are committed to building connections and celebrating the power of community, and this partnership allows us to extend that spirit to the next generation of young girls. As both a parent of two girls at Branksome and the President and CEO of Roots, it is especially meaningful to work with a school with shared values, and something I am personally excited to do.”
The limited-edition Branksome collection features a range of timeless, Canadian-made products including the Branksome Varsity Jacket, crafted with a vintage-inspired design, and the ultra-soft Branksome Pullover Kanga Hoodie, perfect for cozy wear. Also available is the Branksome 1/4 Zip Stein, a gender-neutral fleece top ideal for layering, and the relaxed-fit Branksome Original Sweatpants. For accessories, the handcrafted BH Leather Bag Charms add Branksome flair, while the warm BH Cabin Socks, with a heritage stripe pattern, will keep feet comfortable this winter.
"After months of creative planning, we are thrilled to launch our first collaboration with Roots in The Shop,” remarked Neetu White, Associate Director, Alum Relations and Community Engagement. “Roots’ long-standing connection with Branksome Hall remains strong. Alums still fondly remember the iconic jackets and pencil cases once offered. It only made sense for Roots to be the first in a new series of community-led collaborations. We hope you enjoy the collection, and look forward to seeing it grow, with future partnerships featuring more parent and alum-led businesses."
A portion of the proceeds from this collection will support the Branksome Alumnae Association Endowed Bursary, which removes financial barriers for students to attend Branksome.
Branksome Hall’s Shop is a welcoming space for all community members, with more partnerships to come! If you are interested in collaborating with The Shop in the future, please contact Neetu White, Associate Director, Alum Relations and Community Engagement at nwhite@branksome.on.ca to learn more.
The Roots x Branksome Hall collection is available for a limited time only, so be sure to shop now!

LAND ACKNOWLEDGMENT
We wish to acknowledge this land on which Branksome operates. For thousands of years, it has been the traditional land of the 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.*
*The Land Acknowledgement may evolve as we honour our commitment to Truth and Reconciliation in partnership with Indigenous communities.

Setting the new standard for girls' education everywhere takes collective action. From all of us.
