Back to School Essentials for Kids and Parents Alike

Although the summer holidays are already in full swing, it's never too early to begin thinking, planning and preparing for that back to school shopping rush. Starting as early as the 2nd of September for school students, and anywhere from the end of September to mid-October for university students, the next term is fast approaching.

For some, having your kids go back to school may bring back that daytime peace, the tranquillity and that blessed rest. For some others it means your child will disappear back into their university life with months of little to no contact, your child only reappearing when you call them to remind them Nan's birthday is coming up and that they promised to be there. However, one thing remains the same for all types of students. They need to stock up on stationery, books and other essential study equipment to prepare for the upcoming year.

Having your brand on a set of well-used stationary is like having your company logo advertised each time a student writes, or reads, or leads their funky highlighter to their friend. There’s no better way to grab that brand recognition than by having it sit on one of the most used pieces of daily equipment in a student's repertoire. Gifting your employees or customers a branded set of daily use stationary to fill their children's study bags for this upcoming semester is the perfect way to spread your brand across the country!

Here, we’ve got an extensive range of branded merchandise, such as bags, pens, bags and many other products just waiting for you to add that finishing touch. Simply select your favourite mug, bag or other item from our website, upload your logo, confirm, and we’ll do the rest.

Backpacks and Laptop Bags

Starting with one of the most important parts of any student's repertoire, the bag. Bags are not only practical and purposeful, they’re also an integral part of a child's way to express themselves. Colour, style, how you wear it and what you accessorise your bag with can help a student show off who they are.

Try out one of our elegant Pheebs recycled cotton and polyester backpack on for size, or get funky with one of our branded laptop bags. Speaking of laptops, these have become an integrated part of our lives, so you can make sure yours is safe in an anti-theft backpack from Swiss Peak with prices starting from only £33.

Last but not least, the classic Carolina tote bag is also perfect for carrying books and stationary around, while looking stylish and sleek with your logo on it.

Books and Notebooks

Now that you have a lovely bag ready for the school year, it’s time to fill it up with all sorts of stationery goodies. Books and notebooks are ubiquitous in schools and universities as a staple piece of learning apparatus. Good for note-taking or doodling while that boring professor goes on about his political views once more, or even for folding into paper aeroplanes, a good notebook is a versatile and beloved study staple.

Take a look at one of our Kraft spiral notebooks with a pen for example, a lovely minimalist notebook coming with a splash of colour to add that touch of personality. Or for those with more classical notebook tastes you can try one of our ever popular Swiss Peak deluxe A5 notebook and pen sets, coming with 80 sheets/160 pages of lined cream-coloured paper. The pen also comes filled with German ink and offers 1200 metres of writing length.

Pens and Pencils

Okay, now we have a bag, and books to fill it. But as we all know, nothing is worse than a lovely notebook with nothing to write on it with! So to fix this problem, we also offer a massive range of perfectly customisable pens to compliment your study books! Check One of our BIC Matic Ecolutions mechanical pencils! No note-taking set is complete without a set of highlighters to go with it! And one of our fun and funky Trafalgar square-shaped 4-colour highlighters completes that set nicely.

Lunch Boxes and Water Bottles

Studying is hard work, hungry work and thirsty work. Having a good way to fill up that stomach and hydrate is paramount to creating the best possible learning conditions. Lunch boxes and water bottles are the perfect solution to keep your child full and ready for learning during their school season.

Check out one of our Spiga 750 ml lunch boxes, popping with colour, this perfectly sized lunch box is a wonderful choice to fill with all those tasty lunchtime goodies. And what about a H2O Active Pulse 600 ml flip lid sport bottle & infuser to match? The perfect way to keep that active child hydrated and healthy as they go about their daily school life.
