Ultimo Educational Resource & Toy Swap

Jointly hosted by Joy of Giving, KU Maybanke, KU Ultimo, Uniting Harris Community, and Ultimo Toy Exchange, we are excited to bring you the Ultimo Community Toy Swap event! The Ultimo Educational Resource & Toy Swap is not just about swapping toys – it's an opportunity for kids to discover the power of sustainability and the value of reusing. By participating, you'll help reduce our environmental footprint and contribute to the reduction of landfill waste.

What to expect:

• Learn about the importance of sustainability and reusing items.
• Connect with like-minded individuals who care about our community and environment.
• Have fun while making a positive impact!

Simple rules to follow:

• Bring No More Than One Bagful of Toys, Books, and Stationery to swap!
• Ask yourself: Is this item good enough for my friend or another kid?
• Due to safety concerns, you must check that all battery-operated items (toys, games and books) are in working condition and replace their batteries when necessary.
• Battery-operated toys should have battery cases secured by screws or other means to prevent children from prying them open.
• We may refuse any items that are not in the desired condition, and you must remove them from the premises.

Don't miss this chance to connect, learn, and contribute. Let's make a difference together at the Ultimo Community Toy Swap event!
