Ready for school: Your ultimate back-to-school guide

Gear up for the new school year with our comprehensive guide, designed to make your back-to-school shopping experience smooth and enjoyable. From uniforms to shoes, we’ve got your school year prep covered.

Top tip: Don’t forget to label everything! Kids have a knack for misplacing things, especially cardigans and jumpers.

Ready, set, school!

As we prepare for another school year, our handy back-to-school guide is here to keep you calm and organised. Prepping for the new term has never been easier. Remember to check your school’s uniform policy, as each one has its own set of rules. And with the warm climate, many schools prefer summer uniforms like shorts and dresses. Now’s the perfect time to stock up on kids’ back-to-school clothes, shirts and shoes - save on everything they’ll need for the school year.

Stress-free mornings

We all know that anything reducing morning stress is a lifesaver. That’s why our range includes crease-resistant, stain-resistant, and water-repellent shorts, trousers, skirts, and pinafores. These smart designs save you time and keep the kids looking sharp all day long.

Top tip: Anything that helps kids dress themselves is a win. Riptape-fastening shoes and shirts with riptape behind buttons are perfect for younger children or those with less dexterity. Also, consider buying tights a size bigger—they’re easier to put on and more comfortable.

Top tip: Short-sleeved shirts and blouses are a must, especially if they’re white. They’re easier to keep clean and save you from washing long sleeves every day.

Be prepared

Make sure your little ones are ready for the sunny weather. Pack a spare uniform for those inevitable little accidents. And don't forget the sun hats and sun cream for those hot, shade-free playgrounds. Plus, kit them out with the perfect school bag or backpack to haul their essentials with ease and flair.
