The Uniform Shop is run by the P&C. Parent volunteers manage the shop as coordinators, supported by regular parent volunteers working in the shop.
The shop opens Tuesday and Fridays 8:30am - 9:30am during school terms and is located around the corner from the canteen, on the way to the OOSH room.
The Uniform Shop offers a variety of brand new and second hand school uniform items. Each item has a small mark-up and all profits are used to purchase resources for the school. Remaining volunteer-run helps to keep the cost of uniforms down for the whole community.

Keeping Textile Waste Out of Landfill Since 2022
Since 2022 our volunteers have made extra effort to sort, mend and clean the second hand uniforms to make second-hand shopping appealing and easy for busy families. Anything that could not be mended has been up-cycled in many different ways and collectively we have saved around 100kg PER YEAR of textile waste.
Second hand uniforms sales have consistently climbed the 'top sales' ladder and as of 2024 has been the top selling category across the store.
FAQs
How can I help keep this going?
Donate clothes already washed and mended.
Volunteer in the shop or between shop times to help sort and organise second hand stock.
Join the D.U.F. (Dully Uniform Fixers) WhatsApp to learn more about how to fix things or share creative ideas on upcycling (no experience necessary).
Organise a 'mending bee'. Don't know how to sew? Ask us, turns out it's easy!
How can I donate?
Donations can be left outside the uniform shop door any time during term. Please do not leave them during holidays, as they get rained on and leafy and then we have to wash them again.
What can I donate?
Clean uniforms, even the damaged ones, but please still wash them first.
Please do not donate any non-uniform items. Uniform-adjacent (ie, maroon pants from Kmart) are very welcome.
A short roll through the dryer or a brush down with a lint-remover will help to remove pet hair, which really helps the volunteers who sneeze like crazy when they open hairy donations and they will be very grateful :-)

What other upcycled things are around the school?
