During Move up Day each year, two children from each class (Key Stage 1) are chosen to be part of the Eco Team to represent their class.

Everyone at West Byfleet Infants work hard to make the school as eco-friendly as possible.

Year 2 Eco Team are in charge of ensuring that the classes are trying their hardest to be eco-friendly. They award classes with an Eco Token each day if they have achieved the Eco Checklist. Each week the class with the winning amount of tokens win the Eco Trophy and wins 5 marbles for the class.

At West Byfleet Infant School we encourage all children to become Eco Warriors and think about their environment  not just at school but at home as well. 

At school this term we have started to recycle pens so if you have any old pens at home -pop them into a bag and pass them along to the Eco Team. Once we have enough pens we are going to send them off to exchange them for money for our school.
