Children, Childhood & Youth

My undergraduate experience within the Children, Childhood & Youth program has been incredibly rewarding. With the faculty’s passion for student success, I have felt supported through every step of my degree. In my classes, my professors and TAs have not only helped me foster my passion for this field of study, but have also encouraged me to pursue valuable learning experiences beyond the classroom. Being able to serve as the vice president for the CCY Student Association over the past year has also helped me connect with other CCY students, make lasting memories, and provide the same support I have received. The CCY program has been such a wonderful community over the past four years and for that I am extremely grateful. 

I will now be pursuing a Master’s of Arts in Child Study and Education at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education at the University of Toronto. Through the CCY program, I have been able to develop a foundation of knowledge about child-centred pedagogies and rights-based practices that will help me as I pursue a career in teaching.
