Back to school: same chaos, new lunchbox

25/08/2025

On September 1, the new school year kicks off, and with it come early alarms, missing books and that slight September panic. Suddenly, your hallway is a shoe minefield again. The calendar is colour-coded. One kid wants pasta (but not that pasta) in their lunchbox, and the other is crying because you picked the wrong dinosaur socks. New routines slowly kick in, lunch boxes come back half full (if you’re lucky), and there's never enough time. We’ve listed the most essential things so you don’t forget, because you don’t have to be perfect. Just ready.
