Sustainability Club Clothing Swap

By Anne Wellnhofer
Ready for some spring cleaning? Got some clothes that are still current but are ready to leave your closet? Bring your gently used clothing to CDS so it can be sustainably worn again. We are only taking clothes that are clean, in good condition, and current.
 
Drop off of items will happen on Monday, April 29 and Tuesday, April 30 before school and during break in the Mantella Atrium. Students will be given "store credit" for their items.
 
The swap will happen at lunch in the Mantella Atrium on Tuesday, April 30. Students who have brought clothing items in will be the first to be able to shop the swap with their credit. Those who wish to shop the swap but did not bring in items will be able to purchase items by donation on Wednesday, May 1 at lunch time.
 
Any clothes that have not been swapped or purchased can be picked up by their owners at the end of lunch on Wednesday, May 1. Any leftover clothing will be donated and any funds raised will go to The David Suzuki Foundation. This clothing swap is organized by the Sustainability Committee.

Land Acknowledgment

The Country Day School wishes to recognize and acknowledge the land on which the school operates. Our nearest Indigenous Nations are now the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Chippewas of Georgina Island. The Dish with One Spoon Wampum covenant is often cited as an example of the shared responsibility for caring for these lands among the Huron-Wendat, Anishinaabe and Haudenosaunee peoples who would call these their traditional territories. CDS respects the relationship with these lands and recognizes that our connection to this land can be strengthened by our continued relationship with all First Nations, by acknowledging our shared responsibility to respect and care for the land and waters for future generations.
