For your school to take part in the Yellow Woods Challenge, you must sign up with a participating local authority – around 100 will take on the 2009 Challenge. Find out if your local authority is taking part this year.

The local authority’s Yellow Woods Challenge organiser will directly contact your school before new Yellow Pages directories are delivered in your area and will invite you to take part in the competition.

A minimum of fifteen schools must sign up in an area before the Challenge can go ahead.

Once the Challenge is confirmed in your area, you will receive a Teachers’ Toolkit which contains posters, educational activities, pupil stickers and general information about the Challenge, prizes and health and safety. This information can also be found in the Teacher's notes online.

Please let parents and guardians know about the Yellow Woods Challenge by using the 'Letter home' template - also available on the reverse of the Teacher's leaflet.

If you have any queries about the timing of your local Yellow Woods Challenge please contact your local authority’s Challenge organiser.
