Get ready for an engaging and intimate look at life within Branksome Hall's Boarding community on the newest episode of the PrincipalED podcast. Launched on October 28, 2025, this episode entitled "From First Impressions to Leading the House: The Sisterhood of Branksome Boarding," features a candid conversation with five of our current boarders: Kaitlyn, Arham, Angel, Titoluwa and Yuning.

Sitting down with Grace, the students offer a genuine glimpse into their world, starting with their first impressions of boarding life and how those initial perspectives have evolved. They speak warmly about the strong sisterhood that makes Branksome Boarding truly special and discuss how living with a roommate has helped them develop strong communication skills.

Listen in as they reflect on being role models for younger students, tackle common misconceptions about boarding and share what they wish more people understood about life in the boarding houses. They also offer their best advice for prospective students who might be interested in joining this unique community.

Thinking about boarding? They share how they knew they were ready and why you should consider it, making this episode a must-listen for prospective students, parents and educators alike.
