Back to School with Blitz Surf Shop: Essentials for the New School Year

The summer holidays are winding down, and it’s time to start prepping for the new school year! Whether your kids are just starting primary school or heading into their senior years, Blitz Surf Shop has everything they need to stay sun-safe, stylish, and organized for the year ahead. Check out our top back-to-school picks to make sure they’re ready to hit the ground running.

Sun Protection: Stay Safe in the Summer Heat

Blazing summer sun imagery

With the new school year kicking off at the height of summer, sun protection is a must. We’ve got a great range of kids and youth sunhats, including bucket hats and caps, to help keep kids cool and protected during lunchtime and outdoor activities. Pair that with our sunscreen and sunblock options to ensure they’re covered from the first bell to the last.  The hot New Zealand sun can be particularly brutal on young skin so keep your kids safe at all times.

Footwear: Smart, Casual & Comfortable

For school-approved footwear, we’ve got black shoes that meet uniform requirements while keeping feet comfy all day. If they need an easy slip-on option for after-school or weekend wear, check out our Havaianas Flash Urban sandals in black – perfect for summer days.

Swimming & Sports Essentials

With swimming lessons and beach outings still in full swing, our Wai-Tai Pikau kids’ swimming bags make carrying togs and towels a breeze. And speaking of towels, now’s the perfect time to grab a youth hooded towel from Gizzy Hard or East Coast – both are currently half price! These are great for drying off quickly and staying warm after a dip.  Shop YOuth and kids hooded towels here
