Semester 2 - Time for Back-to-School Ordering

As we move into Semester 2, our thoughts naturally turn to preparation for the year ahead. It's part of the eternal rhythm of education – cycles of preparation and delivery, planning and implementation that keep our schools flourishing.

Secure Your Orders by August 22nd

Orders placed by August 22nd help ensure smooth delivery for the start of the school year. While we accept orders beyond this date, placing them by the 22nd allows us to guarantee timely fulfilment from our secured stock. We've already done the groundwork, negotiating favourable terms to meet the demands that arise at the start of a new school year. When every classroom needs to be ready from day one, early preparation makes all the difference.

Locked-In Pricing Through September

There's something magical about fresh beginnings. As we prepare for another Back-to-School season, we want to ensure every classroom has access to the materials that spark wonder and support authentic learning.

Our planning and advance negotiations have secured excellent pricing valid for all orders – both current and Back-to-School – placed between July 20th and September 30th, 2025. This extended window gives you flexibility while protecting your budget from price changes.

This year, we're excited to offer a range of Back-to-School specials that will make a real difference in your classrooms:

Mercurius Lesson Books

Our thoughtfully designed lesson books come in carefully considered sizes that support each stage of development:

• Large books give younger children the freedom of space needed for pictorial learning
• Medium books feature special proportions that help develop harmony and balanced thinking
• A4 books support critical thinking in high school

Each size serves the child's developmental needs, moving beyond mere convenience to support natural learning rhythms, while the rounded corners soften learning, quality drawing cartridge adds depth to both crayon and pencil work, and the embossed covers speak to a child's senses.

Golden Fleece Australian Eco Wool

Sourced from Australian Merino Border Leicester sheep, ethically cared for and non-mulesed, then processed through an ethical journey, colours have been carefully blended to perfectly match the Goethean colour wheel. These are 'living' colours that resonate with the developing soul of the child while remaining free from polymer coatings for a truly natural experience.

New Greenfield ECO Pens

Made exclusively for Mercurius, and Mercurius recognised retailers, these innovative pens represent a breakthrough in sustainable design:

• 100% recycled materials for all plastic components
• Ergonomic design with soft, non-slip finger depressions supporting comfortable tripod grip
• Interchangeable nibs – one pen body accommodates calligraphy, fountain, and rollerball nibs
• Component-based system allows you to replace specific parts rather than disposing of entire pens

Recorders - Heavily Subsidised

Our selection includes beautifully crafted wooden recorders from trusted brands including Choroi and Moeck, thoughtfully selected for their tonal warmth, durability, and artistic beauty. From pentatonic recorders perfect for early childhood's free-playing to diatonic models recommended for older children, every student can access the profound gift of music-making during our special Back-to-School pricing period.

LYRA Favourites

The beloved LYRA range continues to be a cornerstone of artistic expression in Waldorf classrooms. From their renowned coloured pencils to specialty art materials, these time-tested favourites will be available at special Back-to-School pricing.

These offerings reflect our understanding that the beginning of the school year represents both an investment and a commitment – in our children, in our teachers, and in the transformative power of quality materials.
