By branded I meant gamesRuby wrote: ↑Tue Jul 14, 2020 2:09 amI would say they don't need branded and probably not a Fortnite or Smiggle pencil case. The SAM always has a novelty pencil case - once he had a banana and once an avocado. I think he has a shark this year? It doesn't seem to get him bullied but he is 100% geek anyway. Nobs has a galaxy print one.
I would get him a maths set, pens (BIC colour change are always popular), pencils, highlighters, ruler, glue stick, rubber & sharpener. They both had to have a specific scientific calculator that the school told us about.
I can't tell you how helpful it is when kids have their own red/green biros, highlighters and glue.
ETA : oh and Nobs has his own pencil crayons with the names of the colours on because he's colour-blind.
Your list pretty much matches the same as the one sent by the school apart from the highlighters. I’ll definitely add some of those
He would love a shark pencil case!
I’ve also ordered him a spell checker and he has a C-pen on the way for his dyslexia.
