2027 Stationery Lists

Dear Parents and Carers,

Thank you for your support as we prepare for the 2027 school year. 

Your child's 2027 Stationery List has been sent home today via nForma App

Why we use COS 

St Andrew's has chosen COS as our preferred stationery provider for several reasons:

• Chosen by our teachers. Every item on the booklist has been selected by our teachers tosuit the learning needs of each year level.
• Continuity of products. COS supplies the same quality products each year, so teachers can plan with confidence and students use consistent materials.
• Easy ordering and delivery. Families can order online using the enclosed form, and stationery is delivered ready for the start of the year. 

If you choose another supplier

If you choose another supplier, we kindly ask that the lined workbooks match those on the book list exactly. In particular, please check that each lined workbook has:

• A PP cover. PP means a lightweight, semi-transparent plastic cover. Teachers will glue subject title pages under the covers, which helps students to stay organised.
• A red side margin on each page.
• The correct dotted thirds for your child's year level. The ruling is matched to each student's age and stage of handwriting development, and is noted beside each work book on the booklist. 

Workbook checks 

At the start of the year, teachers will check every workbook to make sure it has the correct lines and margins. Books that don't match the booklist may need to be replaced. We know this may seem like a small detail, but the right ruling makes a real difference. Consistent margins and accurately sized dotted thirds help children form letters correctly, space their writing evenly and take pride in neat, well-presented bookwork.

These books are ordered by the school and charged through the 2027 school levy in your fees:

Warm regards,
