Updates to the PTFA second-hand uniform shop consignment policy
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Please be advised of the following updates to the PTFA second-hand uniform shop consignment policy in line with the college’s sport uniform changes communicated November 2023.
From the end of Term 4 2024, the second-hand uniform shop will cease accepting discontinued colour/style primary and secondary sport uniforms to be sold on consignment, due to the current stock level of these consignment items.
From January 2025, Families will be welcome to submit good condition unneeded discontinued sport uniform to the shop on donation basis only.
Please note, the second-hand uniform shop continues to accept and sell good condition ‘bone/cream’ colour shirts on consignment. These items are not discontinued and remain approved formal uniform.
