Family Activity Night
Family Activity Night is back! Join us October 22 for a family night out to create planners. Children also go home with new books for their home library.
Eardley Clothing Swap & Trade
Join us for our upcoming Clothing Swap & Trade on October 22! This is a wonderful opportunity to refresh your child’s wardrobe in time for winter while supporting our school community. Children come in all sizes, so all sizes are welcome. Please stick to clothing only, no shoes or equipment.
How it works:
- Bring a bag to collect your items
- Clothing must be clean and in good condition, suitable for another child
- Clothing only (no toys or other items)
- Families will drop off items and sort them by size upon arrival
- Browse and shop
Drop-off note:
We will also accept bags of clothing during the day on Thursday, October 22, provided the items are already bagged and sorted by size in individual bags. No Donation? No problem! You are welcome to shop even if you are unable to bring items. All remaining clothing will be donated at the end of the day.
Event Schedule:
- Date: October 22, 2026
