Second-Hand Textbooks and Uniforms at Sustainable School Shop
We are delighted to announce a partnership with the Sustainable School Shop that will enable families to buy and sell second-hand uniforms, textbooks and school items throughout the year. We are very mindful of the potential waste generated over the life of a student at school and we hope this system will help our community recycle uniform and other items and, ultimately, help to reduce our ecological footprint. There is no cost to families to access and use this service.
Sustainable School Shop is a national platform that assists schools and families with second-hand services that are customised to each school. Families will have the ability to:
- Trade second-hand school uniforms, textbooks and other school items with ease 365 days per year
- Access ongoing support and assistance directly with Sustainable School Shop
- Connect directly with other families to buy and sell textbooks and uniforms
- Access a complete and accurate guide of available second-hand uniform and textbooks

Please note that while the 2020 MLC School booklists are available to view on Sustainable School Shop, these are for information purposes as we acknowledge that textbooks may have already been purchased. However, you may still opt to sell textbooks from now as Sustainable School Shop has an ISBN number matching service that may enable you to find a home, at another school, for your daughter’s textbooks. 2021 booklists will be available and accessible from the Sustainable School Shop from Term 3 in 2020 so families may start buying/selling/trading these items then. Helpful flyers will be available at the key access points around the school in the Studies Office (Senior Centre), Senior School Reception (Rowley Street) Junior School Reception (Park Road), and the Uniform Shop.
I hope you find this service of use and welcome any feedback you have on the service and process.
