On Thursday week 8, with some help from the East Metropolitan Regional Council, the class 9 Ecology class created and ran a clothes swap event. 

As we finished off the year by looking at the impact and sustainability issues within the textiles industry, the initiative was aimed at giving new life to some pre-loved clothes and negate the need to buy new items.  

The event was an overwhelming success as many students donated large amounts of clothes, this ensured that all students were able to come away with something new. 

We will be doing this again next year so please keep this in the back of your mind when sorting out your wardrobes.
