Back to School Essentials

It’s that time of year again! Time to round up the kiddos, get the uniforms prepped and school bags packed. School is almost back in session, so now is the perfect time to check off all the back-to-school essentials. Bathurst City Centre has everything you need to an easy-breezy transition back into the school routine—from stationery to lunchboxes and beyond. Here’s a quick guide to some must-have essentials you can pick up from centre.

1. Uniform
   There’s nothing like starting a new school year with a fresh new uniform. If you need to get the kids’ uniforms sorted, you’ll want to pay a visit to Best and Less and Lowes. Meanwhile Williams Shoes, Spendless Shoes and Sketchers have their school shoes sorted.
   
   
2. A fresh haircut
   A new start to the school year calls for a fresh new haircut. To get your kids looking sharp and school-ready, take them to the team at Kingsman Hair for a clean new do.
   
   
3. Stationery staples
   Whether your child is starting primary school or heading into high school, stocking up on the right stationery is a must. The Reject Shop offer notebooks, pens, highlighters, pencil cases, and art supplies. Don’t forget to grab some folders and binders to keep everything organised for the year ahead.
   
   
4. Tech Gear
   For older students, tech and tech accessories are essential for keeping on top of homework. If your little one needs a new laptop, we’ve got just the spot! JB HiFi has all your computer needs covered—from laptops and iPads, to headphones, and computer accessories.
   
   
5. Food to fuel hungry minds
   We all know that information-hungry minds need nourishment to fuel their learning. We recommend paying a visit to Woolworths and Farmgate Meats to stock up on ingredients for wholesome family meals. After all, healthy lunches are a key part of a successful school day.
   
   
6. Lunchboxes and drink bottles
   Speaking of food, you’ll need a lunchbox to keep those little bellies full. Head into House or Woolworths to pick up easy-to-clean lunch containers, plus fun, leak-proof drink bottles in all kinds of colours and designs.

With everything in one convenient location, Bathurst City Centre is the perfect destination to get all your back-to-school essentials. Happy shopping, and here’s to a successful school year ahead!
