Booklists

In 2026, we will be bulk-ordering most items included in the booklists to streamline the process and ensure consistency across all year levels. These resources have been incorporated into the per-student fee structure, which averages approximately $90 per student. Each year level has been allocated only the cost of the resources deemed essential by the teaching team for that cohort.

We anticipate that this approach will reduce costs for families through bulk purchasing and remove the need for a significant expense in mid-January.

Below are the required additional materials per year level.  Many students may already have some of these items from previous years and they are welcome to reuse them if still in good condition.  

Some students may have purchased already through the uniform shop, for example, art smock and library bag.

You may notice that some year levels may have more additional items than others, as we believe students will be in possession of these from previous years.  2026 is a transitional year and we envisage it will become more streamlined in the future.

Blanes are offering an online ordering service.  Please see the attached document for details.
