Ten Canadian schools are closer to their dream of winning a $20,000 outdoor classroom after being chosen as finalists in the 3rd annual Majesta Trees of Knowledge competition. Majesta is a J.D. Irving company which produces household paper products.

Canadians can vote online at majestatreesofknowledge.ca to determine which school will bring their outdoor classroom to life. Canadian residents who vote can also enter for a chance to win a $10,000 cash prize from Majesta.

The Trees of Knowledge competition was launched in 2011 by Majesta, Tree Canada and Focus on Forests to help schools take learning outdoors by creating inspiring and interactive spaces for students to learn about nature, the environment and sustainability. As part of the competition, schools from across the country submitted unique designs for their own outdoor classroom.
