FUNDRAISING – Pre-loved uniform ideas


▲‘Our PTA sells beautiful hair accessories made from leftover pre-loved uniforms that are not suitable for sale. A group of parents and grandparents from our school support us in helping to make them. This initiative is a part of our Project Unicycle, which aims to recycle as much uniform as possible.’ Katie Marsden, Greenmount PTA


▲ ‘At our uniform recycling scheme, we encourage parents to donate pre-loved, unwanted uniform that families can take for free. One of our talented grandmas makes these memory bears from anything left over and we sell them to the Year 6 leavers – a lovely keepsake to remember their time at our school.’ Tanya Dos Santos, St Mary Magdalen’s PTFA


▲ ‘We had several branded jumpers that were too damaged to sell in our pre-loved uniform sale. Rather than disposing of them, I decided to make some bunting to use at our events. Having never used a sewing machine before, I watched a few online tutorials first. Then I created a template, cut up the jumpers with pinking shears and got to work. The end result was very effective, and everyone loved them!’ Sarah O’Shea, Harold Court Primary School PTA


Second life


There’s no need to send stained or torn uniform to landfi ll – why not get crafty instead?


‘I wanted our PTFA to be easily identifi able at events,


so I went through the torn gingham summer dresses and made these lanyards.’ Jenny King, Friends of John Blandy


▲ ‘We wanted to create a unique keepsake for our leavers. So PTA secretary Mel Russell used uniforms that were too marked or damaged to sell in our second- hand uniform store to make these beautiful rosettes. Each of the 45 pupils received one as a gift.’ Gemma Rowlands, Friends of Burnham Copse PTA


If you’re looking for a more


sustainable alternative to leavers’ hoodies, order these custom-made memory cushions, which can be sewn from a variety of old uniform items, such as shirts, jumpers, cardigans and ties. No PTA seamstress required! handmadebyskia.etsy.com/ listing/559308173
