North Baddesley Infant School’s Walk Once a Week Scheme!

Our Walk Once A Week scheme is designed to help lessen the impact of the "school run" on the environment. The idea was originally thought up by Mercury Class in Summer 2009 as part of our SOS environment week. In Autumn 2009, the Environment Club developed the idea into a practical scheme for the school.

The scheme was launched on February 1st 2010 as part of a whole school assembly by the Environment Team, with road safety input from our crossing patrol man and Community Governor, Mr Dave Wilson.

The scheme is very simple:

Children and families are encouraged to walk to school at least once a week and earn Foot Tokens. At the end of the week, the class with the greatest number of Foot Tokens wins the Golden Boot trophy and an extra playtime that week.
