YOUNGSTERS put the final stamp on a tree-planting initiative yesterday.
The Redcar primary school children gathered at Borough Park's Family Wood to help plant the last of 800 trees.
They have been planted over an eight-year period in an initiative between Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council and Tees Forest.
Children from Ings Farm Primary School and Wheatlands Primary School joined the council's recycling mascot to complete the project during the ceremony yesterday.
The council's cabinet member for environmental improvement, Councillor Bob Stanway, said: "This is another wonderful initiative, where we are interfacing with the public, particularly youngsters, showing how we are working together to make the borough cleaner, greener and safer."
