Bayside Toy Swap Event!
We’re excited to announce our first-ever partnership with Bayside Council — bringing together families and community members for a day. Swapping toys is a great way to keep playtime fresh without the cost or clutter. It also helps teach kids the value of sharing and sustainability from a young age.
Time & Location
17 May 2025, 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
Eastlakes Community Centre, 16 Florence Ave, Eastlakes NSW 2018, Australia
About the Event
🎉 Toy & Clothes Swap – In Partnership with Bayside Council
This special event features two great swaps:

Whether you’re decluttering the toy box or giving your wardrobe a refresh, there’s something for everyone!
🧸 Toy Swap (10:00am – 12:00pm)
Hosted by Joy of Giving
Looking to keep playtime exciting without the extra cost or clutter? Our Toy Swap is a perfect way to pass on gently-loved toys, books, and games — and find something fresh in return. It’s also a great way to teach kids about sharing, reuse, and sustainability from a young age.
What to Bring:
Up to one bag of toys, books, and games
Plus one larger item (e.g. dollhouse, scooter, etc.)
Items must be clean, safe, and in good working condition
Battery-operated toys must include working batteries with secure covers
Please only bring items you would proudly pass on to another child. Our team will check items before accepting them for the swap.
👚 Clothes Swap (12:00pm - 2:00pm)
Hosted by The Clothing Exchange
Check-in: 12:00pm – 1:00pm | Swap: 1:00pm – 2:00pm
Inspired by Australian Fashion Week (14–16 May)? Take a more sustainable route by swapping instead of shopping!
Bring up to six items of clothing in excellent condition and exchange them for pieces you’ll love — all without spending a cent. When you check in your items, you’ll receive buttons to use as swap currency.
Take the hour while we sort to relax, explore, or chat with fellow swappers!
Accepted Items Include:
Tops, pants, skirts, dresses, jackets
Shoes, bags, belts, scarves and hats
Not Accepted:
Undergarments, swimwear, activewear, jewellery
Items that are stained, torn, pilled, or noticeably worn
