Enviroweek: Clothing Swap, Sustainable Clothing Days and much more!

By Nina O'Callaghan | Posted: Tuesday June 25, 2024

Enviroweek is coming up, so make sure to mark your calendars with all the exciting activities on offer next week.

Clothing Swap and Sustainable Clothing Days!

Enviroweek is coming up NEXT WEEK (Monday 1st - Friday 5th July 2024).  As part of the week, the envirogroup is holding their annual clothing swap.  Bring along any clothes you no longer want and you gain entry to the clothing swap to look through all the other donations for free!  All sizes are welcome as people often choose clothes for younger siblings etc.  

There will also be a sustainable clothing day.  The students do not need to wear uniform, instead we ask that they look at their wardrobe, and wear what is the most sustainable item they own.  This might be something bought from an op-shop, handed down, or swapped.  Or made from natural fibres such as wool etc.  Anything mended rather than thrown out is also sustainable!  

If anyone has any sustainable crafts they'd like to sell at our gala day, please email nocallaghan@trinity.school.nz or talk to a member of the envirogroup.  

There will be lots of other exciting events throughout the week too so keep an eye out for more information about these, including;

Bring Your Own Bowl!  

On Thursday and Friday of Enviroweek (4th and 5th July), the canteen will be offering discounted dishes if students bring their own bowl.  

Also if anyone has any old forks they would like to donate to the school, the envirogroup would appreciate them.  Please send them to the office, or to M2.1

The Envirogroup meets on Thursdays at lunchtime, upstairs in the library and new members are always welcome.
