Car boot sale of Sainte-Croix school

The Sainte-Croix school car boot sale: solidarity and conviviality in Diois

Every end of March, parents and residents of Sainte-Croix mobilize for the school's annual car boot sale. This event, organized for the benefit of school and extracurricular activities, is a highlight of village life. It brings together all generations in a spirit of celebration and solidarity, typical of small rural communities in Diois.

Sainte-Croix, a village in Diois drômois

Sainte-Croix is a commune in Diois drômois (26150), a geographical area between the Drôme valley and the foothills of the western Vercors. This rural territory, marked by terraced cultivation, wild lavenders, and limestone cliffs, is one of the most preserved regions of the Drôme. The village of Sainte-Croix, with its primary school which is an important social link for the local community, perfectly illustrates the vitality of small rural communes in the interior of the Drôme.

A car boot sale for the school

The Sainte-Croix school car boot sale operates on a logic of associative solidarity: the profits go directly to the children's school activities and outings in the village. Parents, teachers, and volunteers from the local community are involved in the organization. The exhibitors, mostly from the village and neighboring towns, offer children's clothing, toys, books, furniture, and second-hand items in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere.
