Frequently asked questions
Answers before you start
How do I ask for supplies in packs?
Put the pack size in the item name or notes and set the quantity to the number of packs you need.
Where should I share the list?
Use your school’s usual channel for contacting caregivers. Anyone who gets the link can open it, so keep pupil names and other personal information off the list.
