Marymount Academy is proud to announce that Grade 11 student Alexia Hall has been selected to attend CampMed at NOSM University this summer from July 7 to 11, 2025.

Through a highly competitive application process, Alexia demonstrated her strong interest in health care and was chosen to participate in this immersive, week-long experience designed to inspire youth in Northern Ontario to pursue careers in the health sciences.

Hosted at NOSM University, CampMed introduces students to a wide range of health-related professions through hands-on learning opportunities, including anatomy labs, simulations, and mentorship from healthcare professionals. The program places a strong emphasis on Indigenous and Francophone cultures while fostering collaboration and leadership among participants.

“I am incredibly honored to have been accepted into NOSM University’s CampMed program,” said Alexia. “From a young age, I knew I wanted to pursue a career centered around helping others—whether as a veterinarian, nurse, or doctor. Through my CO-OP placement and current job at Northwood Medical Clinics, my passion for healthcare has only grown.”

She added that the opportunity aligns closely with her long-term goals. “My dream is to attend Laurentian University for my undergraduate studies in science and eventually pursue family medicine at NOSM to become a family doctor. CampMed presents an amazing opportunity for me to explore the healthcare field further, gain valuable insight, and develop skills that will benefit both my academic journey and everyday life. I am beyond grateful for this opportunity and excited for what lies ahead.”

“We are incredibly proud of Alexia and all that she has accomplished,” said Stephanie Venturi, Principal of Marymount Academy. “Her passion for health care, commitment to learning, and enthusiasm for helping others are truly inspiring. We can’t wait to see where her journey leads.”

Alexia will join other high school students from across Northern Ontario in this transformative experience that blends education, cultural awareness, and career exploration.

Congratulations, Alexia – your future is bright!
