Ergobag accessories

A new school year is starting, or your child is heading to school for the first time. It's a big moment – and a new routine everyone has to settle into. The right school accessories take some of that off your plate.

What actually matters

A drinking bottle, a pencil case, a lunch box: it's the small things that make the school day easier. Children love bright designs and the feeling of owning something that's properly theirs.

Two things they won't think about on their own: being seen and staying safe. Good school accessories have to cover both. And at ergobag everything matches the backpack – lunch box, gym bag, folder box and pencil case all come from the same theme world.

What does your child need?

The essentials are a lunch box, a drinking bottle, a pencil case and a gym bag. Add a rain cover and an umbrella so your child doesn't end up soaked, and folder boxes so worksheets don't get crumpled at the bottom of the backpack.

The neck pouch is the underrated one: keys and change stay put, and the bus ticket sits behind a clear window – no rummaging.

That way your child has everything to hand and can concentrate on what counts.
