Apparel

Description

The Apparel committee is here to make parents’ lives easier and the earth a little greener by creating a venue to swap/buy/sell/donate gently used uniform items, and sourcing specialty clothing for days that the school observes, such as Day of Reconciliation (orange shirt), and Stand up Against Bullying (pink shirt).  

This committee, created in October 2021, started with facilitating an order of pink shirts and the creation of a Facebook Apparel page for uniform exchange.  In May 2022, we began accepting uniform donations for an Uniforms in Action event where parents can purchase gently used uniforms for a nominal fee. The committee hopes to support the Hallowgreen school initiative and Sports Day event by encouraging parents to post costumes and house colour items they're ready to pass along on the Facebook page or donate at a uniform drop off event.
