My Day @ McGill

In early April, over 160 elementary school students become McGill students for a day!

 

What happens during My Day @ McGill?

My Day @ McGill logoOver 160 elementary students attend McGill University for workshops and activities. My Day @ McGill takes place once a year in early April and spans two full days.

This unique initiative is part of a partnership between Branches and local school boards, encouraging academic engagement and acting as a bridge between McGill and the larger Montréal community. Many students are already part of Homework Zone, an after-school mentorship program connecting McGill students with students to support learning, healthy relationships and socio-emotional development.

McGill University is on land that long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst
Indigenous peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg nations. We acknowledge
and thank the diverse Indigenous people whose footsteps have marked this territory on which
peoples of the world now gather.
