Soaring Back-to-School Costs: Practical Ways for Parents to Save with Kmart


A new school year is on the horizon which means it’s time to get on top of the back-to-school shop with Kmart. If purse strings are feeling tighter, post the holiday period, Kmart’s line-up of school essentials offer affordability and quality - for endless hours of fun, learning and creativity. From the science lover to the spelling whiz, sporting fanatic or artist in training, there’s something for every type of student.

Kmart’s Chief Merchandise Officer, Callum Smith acknowledged Kmart’s commitment to keeping costs low as Australians gear up for the 2025 school year, “We know that the impending school year can seem overwhelming, adding financial pressures for families Australia-wide. We’ve worked hard to curate a range of back-to-school buys that deliver on our low-price promise. Our range caters to all ages, with a suite of products across uniforms and apparel, stationary, lunch and drink, and backpacks.”

School Uniforms & Apparel

If uniforms are looking worn after hours of fun spent in the playground or kids have simply outgrown last year’s attire, Kmart offers a wide range of wardrobe basics. Highlights include the $2.25 school polos in a range of colours, the $9 splash-proof art smock, $6 school shoes, and $5.50 school crew necks. Update your entire uniform for less than $30!

School Bags, Lunch & Drink

The unsung hero of the school year, a quality backpack. This year, Kmart’s Classic Backpack receives top marks, available in a range of funky colours for $5.50. Pack the school bag with everyday essentials available in a variety of designs ranging from unicorns and koalas to dinosaurs and bright patterns.

Keep it cool and stylish in the school yard with insulated lunch bags, reusable drink bottles from as low as 75c, and lunch sets from $10. $5 novelty drink bottles are certain to be a crowd favourite with fun designs for every age group.

Stationary

Head in-store for a stationery overhaul with supplies from as little as 20c – covering pencil cases, highlighter sets, labels, rulers, sharpeners, erasers, pencil grips, pencils and more. Science, creative writing, mathematics and more, there’s stationary solutions for all subjects.

As the cost-of-living pressures continue to affect families across Australia, Kmart is easing the financial burden by offering value-packed solutions for the back-to-school season. With products designed to combine function, fun, and affordability, families can rest assured they’ll find everything they need without breaking the budget – ensuring kids can start the school year equipped and ready to succeed.
