For P&Cs and P&Fs

One place for every uniform at your school.

Run your second-hand shop, let parents sell directly, offer new uniforms - or combine all three. Rethread brings everything together in one school marketplace.

Free for P&Cs.

No setup fee. No listing fee. No commission. Standard card processing applies.

Three ways uniforms change hands. One school marketplace.

Your shop, your families and your new stock do not sit in separate places. Parents see them together, on your school's page.

One cart, one checkout, one payment.

Shop second-hand first. Fill the gaps with new. Checkout once.

However your P&C handles uniforms, Rethread works with it.

Use one of these or all four. Nothing here asks you to change how your committee already runs.

Sell second-hand stock

List what is in the cupboard and let parents buy it online.

Let parents sell directly

Families sell to each other, on your school's page.

Sell new uniform stock

List new items with quantities and sell them alongside second-hand.

Consignment

Rolling out

Parents leave uniforms with you to sell on their behalf.

Right now the uniform shop is a Facebook group, a spreadsheet and someone's Saturday.

Can't find what you need today? Rethread keeps looking.

A parent saves the search once. When a uniform that matches is listed, we tell them - straight away, or in a daily summary.

No checking a Facebook group every night in case something turned up.

Save each child's school, size and preferences.

Secure payments

Parent-to-parent sales include online payment and buyer protection.

Pick up or post

Free for P&Cs. It goes to your account, not ours.

No setup fee. No listing fee. No commission. Standard card processing applies.

Your shop's payments are connected to the P&C's own account through Stripe, which handles the banking setup. We never hold your money and we never see your bank details.

Rolling out

Consignment, without the spreadsheets.

Parents can donate uniforms or leave them with the P&C to sell. Rethread keeps track of who owns each item, what has sold, what each parent is owed and what happens to unsold stock.

Already have stock? You don't need to start again.

If your shop already runs on a spreadsheet, bring it across as it is. You do not need to rebuild it, and you do not need to create every listing by hand.

  1. 1 Upload the spreadsheet you already use
  2. 2 Match your column headings to ours
  3. 3 Bring your photos across in bulk
  4. 4 Start selling

The shop survives the committee.

Rethread belongs to the P&C, not to one volunteer. Give each committee member their own login, add and remove people as they come and go, and keep a record of who did what.

Individual accounts

No shared password passed from committee to committee.

An audit log

See who created a listing and who changed what.

Simple handovers

Deactivate the outgoing volunteers, invite the incoming ones. Nothing is rebuilt.

A home for every school.

Every Australian school already has a Rethread page, so families have one place for their school's uniforms, listings and information. Your P&C can make it yours.

Coming next

Uniform lists

Help families see what they need, find it second-hand first, and fill the gaps with new.

Already being shaped by Queensland P&Cs

Queensland Academy for Creative Industries is one of the first P&C organisations using Rethread. Their real-world use and feedback are helping shape Rethread's P&C tools.

You'll be talking to the person who built it.

Rethread is still small enough that early P&Cs work directly with the person building it. If something does not fit how your committee works, say so - that feedback is what shapes the P&C tools.

Bring Rethread to your P&C.

Tell us about your school and how you handle uniforms now. We'll work out the simplest way to bring it onto Rethread.

Free for P&Cs. No setup fee. No listing fee. No commission. Standard card processing applies.
