Cuisine & Culture the Chinese Family Way
First day at school is a huge milestone for children and even parents, and it is easy for them to become anxious about new routines after a long summer break and social situations. As many of you know, Marks & Spencer (M&S) has been making uniforms for decades, and knows what it takes to keep your child smart, confident and comfortable through the school day. At the heart of that is letting kids be themselves and being comfortable in their own skin.
This summer, Morrisons is helping us to get ready for the back to school journey! From school uniform essentials to PE kit staples, Nutmeg’s Back to School pieces start from just £2 and include clever design ideas for durability and ease-of-dress. All clothing in the Nutmeg children’s wear range is also covered by Morrisons’ 200 day ‘no quibble’ guarantee which covers rips, spills and outgrown pieces, assuring parents that school uniforms will survive the wear and tear of the playground.
This summer, I waited until the very last minute to pick up the kids school uniforms which is not ideal at all! When I looked at the Matalan Schoolwear website, there were already a few popular designs out of stock. Luckily, Ms C is not too fussy about the design.
This is my first time trying out Matalan school uniforms so I had no idea of the quality and sizes. But I had read a few reviews and they all recommended them. Ordering online was a breeze helped with plenty of photos of each item. Also all the items are very reasonably priced and great value. Impressively, within a few days, my delivery arrived with the full order.

It can be incredibly hard to stay in control of family life when you’re a mum. Keeping everyone on track, organising everything you can and being there no matter what can be a real juggle. When it comes to school, it’s your responsibility to ensure that the kids are all dressed in clean and neat uniforms, while it’s also up to you to attend the various events, parent’s evenings and performances that your children will inevitably invite you to throughout the school year. Throw more than one child into the mix and you can see why mums are so busy all the time!
