Event Description
Give your child’s wardrobe a sustainable makeover at our fun clothing swap. Bring up to 10 clean, good-quality items for ages 0–8, and trade them for something fresh and fun.
Clothing only. No toys or adult clothing.
This event runs in two sessions:
Session 1
Drop-off: 10.00–10.30am
Swap: 10.45–11.00am
Session 2
Drop-off: 11.00–11.30am
Swap: 11.45am–12.00pm
Bring:
Up to 10 items of children’s clothing per family
At drop-off, you’ll receive one token per item. Tokens can be used during the swap to select new items — 1 token = 1 item.
Important information:
• Clothing must be clean, in good condition, and suitable for children aged 2–8.
• Children’s clothing only — no adult clothing or children’s toys
• This is a swap event, not a donation drive. Please only bring items you intend to swap
• To allow more families to attend, one parent/carer per family is recommended
• Once items are exchanged for tokens, they cannot be returned, so please be sure you are happy to part with them
Due to the volume of items, staff cannot retrieve individual items once the swap has begun.
