The transition from primary to secondary school is a massive milestone. For most Year 6 students, the leavers hoodie<\/strong> is more than just a piece of clothing; it\u2019s a badge of honour and a keepsake they\u2019ll cherish for years.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Start Your Order Early<\/h2>\n

The biggest cause of stress is the last-minute rush. To ensure your hoodies arrive in time for the final term or the leavers’ assembly, aim to start the process in January or February<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This gives you plenty of time to distribute size samples, collect preferences, and handle those inevitable late additions without panicking about delivery dates.<\/p>\n

2. Navigating the “Size” Minefield<\/h2>\n

Year 6 is the age of the growth spurt. Some students are still in age 9-11 sizes, while others are already fitting into adult mediums.<\/p>\n
