To make your Back-to-School experience smoother, we've curated a list of must-have essentials that will help eliminate some of the stress. Think of it as your one-stop BTS shop.
Ok, we can't guarantee your kids won't lose a drink bottle, school jumper and hat within the first week (how does this ALWAYS happen?!), but with all the booklist items you need in one place, you'll be all set to kick off Term 1 with confidence!
