Dust off & donate your old clothes!

Our Environmental Group is excited to announce the return of our clothing drive! After a hugely successful first run last year, the group is hoping to make an even bigger impact in 2026 by helping re-home as many clothing items as possible within our community.

This initiative not only supports sustainability by reducing textile waste, but also gives pre-loved clothing a second life with new owners who will appreciate it. Every item donated helps us move closer to a more environmentally responsible school.

We warmly encourage students, staff, and families to contribute any clean, gently used clothing they no longer need. No donation is too small—every piece makes a difference.

Donation Details:

• Where: School reception

• When: Weekdays, 8:00am – 4:00pm

• Deadline: June 25

  
  

For any items that we are unable to re-home directly, we will ensure they are passed on to local charities and op shops, so nothing goes to waste.

Let’s work together to make this year’s clothing drive another success and continue supporting both our community and the environment!
