Vide ta Chambre APE — Saint-Pierre-Lafeuille

The Vide ta Chambre of the APE of Saint-Pierre-Lafeuille

The Parents' Association (APE) of the Saint-Pierre-Lafeuille school regularly organizes its children's car boot sale, the "Vide ta chambre" (Empty your room). This family and solidarity event allows families from the municipality and surrounding areas to exchange children's clothing, toys, youth books, and childcare equipment in a spirit of circular economy. The proceeds from stall fees contribute to the financing of school projects and outings.

Saint-Pierre-Lafeuille, a Quercy village near Cahors

Saint-Pierre-Lafeuille is a village of 365 inhabitants located in the heart of Quercy, only about ten kilometers from Cahors. This proximity to the prefecture of the Lot makes it a popular residential commune, situated between the Quercy countryside and urban services. The village covers 852 hectares at an average altitude of 300 meters, between the A20 motorway (exit 57) and the hills of the Quercy blanc. It is known for its Roussillon castle, built in the 13th century and restored since the 1950s, as well as for its campsites welcoming holidaymakers and passing tourists.

A car boot sale for the school

The "Vide ta chambre" of the APE of Saint-Pierre-Lafeuille is part of the tradition of events organized by parents' associations in the villages of the Lot to support the local school. Families are invited to offer items in good condition that their children no longer use: clothing of all sizes and seasons, shoes, toys, board games, illustrated books, albums, youth novels, as well as strollers, car seats, bouncers, and other childcare equipment. Buyers can find bargains at solidarity prices.

An event rooted in community life

In this residential and family-friendly village on the outskirts of Cahors, the APE's car boot sale is more than just a flea market: it is a meeting moment for families, an act of solidarity for the school, and a contribution to the local economy. The event is usually held in the village hall or outdoors depending on the weather conditions, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
