Schools across Torfaen are celebrating their success after recycling more than 1,200 Yellow Pages directories.
Pupils took part in the Yellow Woods Challenge- the simple, educational and fun environmental campaign for schools, run by Yellow Pages working in partnership with the Woodland Trust and Torfaen Council.
Yellow Pages has awarded cash prizes to schools that recycled the most old directories per pupil.
Building Blocks Nursery in Cwmbran won the Gold Oak award winner and received £300 for recycling 3.42 directories per pupil.
Ponthir Church in Wales School won the Silver Birch award and £200 while Cwmffrwdoer Primary School carried off the £100 Bronze Beech award.
Griffithstown Primary School scooped the £100 bonus prize from Yellow Pages for Best Newcomer.
For every pound given to schools, Yellow Pages has donated a matching pound to the Woodland Trust - the UK's woodland conservation charity.
Councillor John Cunningham, Executive Member for Operational Services, said: "I would like to congratulate all the winning schools and thank everyone who made a contribution to the environment by recycling their old Yellow Pages directory."
A total of 1,249 old directories were collected in Torfaen.
Local schools must now wait until June 2009 to find out how their directory recycling scores compare with other schools taking part in the Yellow Woods Challenge in Wales. Recycling champions will win £1,000 from Yellow Pages.
