Hopewell Avenue Public School has been selected as one of 10 Canadian finalists in the annual MAJESTA Trees of Knowledge Competition for the chance to win a $20,000 outdoor classroom. This grant is one of many that the school applied for to help rejuvenate the primary yard after the loss of all of its trees to the emerald ash borer and the impending loss of all of its play structures due to age and deterioration.
From April 7 to May 4, 2015, adults of voting age can help Hopewell by casting a daily vote for the school in this nationwide competition. The school with the most votes at the end of the competition period wins $20,000 to construct an outdoor classroom. Please vote for Hopewell once a day during the voting period to turn mouse clicks into a beautiful new outdoor learning space for students, staff and the wider community. Voting will take place at www.majestatreesofknowledge.ca
