What kind of school bag for secondary school?


enjoy

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

We are lost in freedom of choice ...

My girl is starting secondary (st dunstans) and l have no clue what kind of bags children have.

Rucksack (big or small)? Kind of shoulder bag?

Do they have to carry a lot of heavy books or only work sheets?

Colourful or plain?

Any input would be really helpful!

I would definitely NOT get messenger bag - they carry large amounts of books which are extremely heavy and will hurt when carried on one shoulder. Go for a rucksack type? Plus, they have to carry sports kit, musical instruments etc and two spare hands is great.

One of mine has a messenger bag, one has a rucksack, both are happy and have no problems (though their bags do seem to weigh a ton). Get whatever style she wants, in whatever colour she wants. She'll change her mind a few weeks into term anyway once she's had a chance to check out what everyone else has. Come Christmas you'll be getting her a new one. :D

    • That is clearly not true. I see car drivers breaking the law on an hourly basis - jumping red lights, speeding, not obeying the general rules. Plus they are operating considerably more dangerous machinery and should have a greater responsibility of care to other road uses. You can see who causes the most harm by the stats.

    • A quick Google found this, amongst other things: "Social impact models are frameworks or approaches that guide how organizations or initiatives address social or environmental problems."
    • "If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck then it must be a duck" comes to mind Unfortunately, a large number of cyclists do exhibit selfish amd anti social behaviour which, regardless of how many good cyclists there are, is seen as the norm.  It's a bit like one car driver jumping a red light and all car drivers getting tarred by the same brush. Perception is the issue and if cyclists all obeyed the rules, everyone would be less anti them but unfortunately that isn't the case 🤔
