What to put on it

  • Term start and end dates for the full year, including pupil-free days marked clearly. This is the primary content and the reason it goes on the fridge.
  • The school office number and absence line — the number parents need most often and can never find.
  • Canteen days, uniform shop hours, and assembly days if they are fixed. Small recurring details that generate the most enquiries.
  • Key event dates: photo day, swimming carnival, parent-teacher nights. Anything a family needs to plan around.

Which one are you after?

Why fridge magnets for schools work

Schools have a communication problem that magnets solve precisely: term dates, pupil-free days and event dates are known a year in advance, but parents forget them constantly. Newsletters get deleted, app notifications get muted, but the fridge is where the family calendar actually lives.

There is also an equity argument. Not every family reliably reads email or uses the school app. A physical magnet reaches every household in the same way, which matters for attendance on pupil-free days and for turnout at events.

Which format suits

A5

Fits full-year term dates plus contact numbers legibly. The standard choice for schools.

Standard DL

Term dates and key numbers in a more compact format, and cheaper at the volumes a large school needs.

Business Card

Absence line and office number only. Some schools order these alongside an A5 for a second fridge spot.

Common questions

What should a school put on a fridge magnet?
Term start and end dates for the full year with pupil-free days marked, the office and absence line numbers, and recurring details like canteen days and uniform shop hours.
When should a school order magnets for the new year?
Order by early November so magnets can go home in the last weeks of term, before families set their January plans. Allow 7 to 10 days production from artwork approval plus delivery.
How many magnets does a school need?
One per family rather than one per student, so a school of 600 students typically orders 400 to 500. Minimum order is just 50 units, which also suits a small school or a single year group.
Do you check the term dates are correct?
Yes. Every calendar design is checked before print to confirm dates align to the correct year and that public and school holidays are marked correctly for the relevant state.
