UNIFORM: Senior School Swap Shop

Background

The Senior School Swap Shop is where you can buy and sell items of used School uniform which are in good to excellent condition. The shop is located at 7a Morrison Street, Hawthorn (opposite the Language and Culture Centre).

The Swap Shop is open:

  • Every Wednesday of Term from 8.00 am – 11.30 am
  • The first Saturday of each term from 9.00 am-12 noon.

The Swap Shop is run by a committee of parents who process the clothing for sale. The system is computerised to keep track of inventory. We have 80 Volunteers who assist on a roster basis to staff the Shop.

Main activities

Sales and Purchases: Clothing is sold on one-third commission; the proceeds are distributed to various projects around the School. Sales are credited to your School account. Likewise purchases are billed to your account.
Hiring of Blazers: Swap Shop also has blazers for hire for special events. For 2006-2007 the cost is $15 with a $210 refundable deposit. The committee member to contact is listed in the Torch.
Funds: Funds have contributed to assisting scholarship and exchange students with clothing costs, the Kapumfi project, sails in the Senior School Quadrangle and areas of School activity that may have difficulty in attracting funds.

How to get involved

If you would like to help, please contact the President, early in the year so that you can be placed on the roster. A commitment of two hours twice a term, usually on a Wednesday, is all that is required. It is a great place to meet parents from across the School community and to pick up some great clothing bargains as well!
