The return to school is just around the corner

T’S THAT time of year again, and the return to school is only around the corner. Come the beginning of September, all young scholars will have their bags packed and be ready to walk through the school gates once more.

When that time arrives in just a few short weeks, you’re going to want to have your little Mr or Mrs well prepared for the upcoming school year. Thankfully, whatever it is you’re looking for in relation to heading back to school, you’ll find it in Sligo.

Whether its uniforms, textbooks, schoolbags or stationary you’re looking for, you will find it in many of the specialised shops in Sligo town, which are ready to help you get kitted out with everything you could need.

You don’t want to be rushing around the house trying to get everything ready on the morning of September 1st, do you? There’s no better time than the present to get your school supplies sorted, and there’s no better place to do it than Sligo.

Businesses such as Red Door Bookshop, Mullaney Brothers, Moffits, Little Explorers Childcare, SG Education and Ken Hunter Menswear will help young people get everything they need ready for the academic year.

The Red Door is Sligo’s foremost proprietor of second hand books. Textbooks can be extremely expensive, especially considering they may only get a year of use before they need to be replaced. A visit to the Red Door is the most reasonable way to get second hand textbooks in good condition.

SG Educational Supplies will make sure that your schoolbag has everything you could possibly need in it, with a large range of supplies.

Little Explorers Childcare is a fully qualified early childhood teacher with B. sc Honours Degree in Early Childhood Care, Health and Education catering for children 6 months to 12 years, so you know your children will be in good hands.

Ken Hunter Menswear, located on the ground floor of Henry Lyons, is the go- to place for boy’s uniforms and school clothing. Providing excellent customer service and high quality clothing, Ken Hunter menswear will ensure you don’t go home unhappy.

Mullaney Brothers and Moffits are Sligo institutions and they’ll be sure to have you prepared for the return to the school. The businesses have been helping kit out school students since they were established over a hundred years ago.
