Answer

Are there second-hand school book swaps in Palma?

Yes, Palma already has established swap circles and parent-led second-hand markets. These are useful for books, exercise books, and sometimes uniforms or sports gear, especially when families want to avoid buying everything new. Many exchanges are organised through neighbourhood groups or school communities.
