Back to School Prep & Budget Planner (Australia)

Back to School Prep & Budget Planner (Australia)- $2

Because the Australian school year starts in late January, December brings a second budget hit right on top of Christmas — uniforms, shoes, booklists, stationery, and tech costs that always seem to land at once. Most families don't realise the total until they're standing at the checkout in the last week of January, paying premium prices because everything they needed sold out.

This Excel tracker gives you the full picture early. Set one total budget and watch it update automatically as you build a shopping list for each child — uniforms, shoes, backpack, stationery, booklist items, and excursion fees, with a live running total and remaining balance per item. A December-to-Term-1 countdown checklist keeps you ahead of the rush, so you're buying while shelves are still full instead of scrambling in the last week of January. A PDF quick start guide is included, so you're set up in minutes.

Works for one child or several — just keep adding rows.

You'll receive: 1 Excel spreadsheet (.xlsx) + 1 PDF Quick Start Guide, delivered instantly after purchase.
