Paul the school satchel

Starting primary school is a real turning point: more supplies, first homework… and a school bag that becomes an indispensable daily companion. From Year 1 to Year 6, we recommend a rigid or semi-rigid school bag to properly protect notebooks and binders. Our primary school bags are sturdy, functional, and designed for children's daily lives, while remaining lightweight… and stylish, of course! The back and straps are padded for greater comfort when worn, the straps are adjustable and easy to handle with little hands. The primary school bag features a large opening, two well-organized compartments, an interior elastic to keep the water bottle upright, and two white straps to close the flap with a click.

Our primary school bag is recommended from the start of Year 1, around age 6, and accompanies children all the way through primary school. Thanks to its adapted dimensions, its contained weight of 830 g, and its adjustable straps, it grows with them throughout their primary school years. A trusty companion designed for first dictations, ever-thickening notebooks… and all the adventures of the playground!

For primary school, a school bag needs to be large enough to carry large-format notebooks, binders and school supplies without being too bulky. With dimensions of 27 × 36 × 11 cm and a capacity of 11 liters, our primary school bag offers the ideal compromise between capacity, comfort and lightness.

Yes! Our school bag has been specially designed to hold large-format notebooks, A4 binders, school books, a pencil case, and all the essential supplies from Year 1 through Year 6. Its two compartments make it easy to organize belongings while keeping them protected every day.

Both are perfectly suited to primary school: it all depends on your child's habits. The Paul school bag, with its semi-rigid structure and two compartments, offers better protection for notebooks and makes organization easier. The Sergio backpack, more flexible and lightweight, offers greater freedom of movement. Two ways to approach the new school year, with the same commitment to comfort and quality.

Yes! Weighing just 830 g, our school bag stays light while maintaining excellent structure. Its weight has been designed to accompany children from Year 1 through to Year 6 without adding unnecessary load to their school supplies.

For maximum comfort, it is important to adjust both straps to the same length so that the school bag rests properly against your child's back. The padded straps and back provide excellent support throughout the day. A well-adjusted school bag means more comfort… and more freedom to run to the bell!

Yes! Our school bag is designed to keep up with the pace of school life. Its semi-rigid structure protects notebooks and books from everyday bumps. Its thick water-repellent cotton resists splashes and helps keep belongings well protected all year long.

Yes! An interior elastic band keeps the water bottle or bottle securely in place during travel. The water-repellent interior provides extra protection in the event of a small accident.

Yes! Each school bag is personalized in our Nantes workshop with a first name, a nickname, or a sweet little message. A lovely way to create a unique school bag that's easy to spot at school and will accompany your child throughout the entire school year.

Yes! Because school days can sometimes be hectic, our school bag is easy to care for. Its water-repellent fabric can be cleaned simply with a damp sponge. To preserve its shape and finish, we advise against machine washing.

Our primary school bag is (for now) made in China, but we're not giving up on our goal of reintroducing the manufacturing process in Portugal with our local partner — #webelieveinit! Personalization is then carried out in our Nantes workshop, with all the care we love to put into every order.

Starting primary school is a big milestone, as emotional for children as it is for their parents. Personalized with a first name, a nickname or a little message, the school bag becomes much more than just an accessory: a reassuring companion that the child recognizes in an instant and that accompanies them through all their first school adventures. A useful gift today… and a wonderful keepsake to treasure tomorrow.

For a perfectly coordinated back-to-school look, pair your school bag with a pencil case, a water bottle, a snack box, a sports bag or a smock from Petit Picotin. All are available in the same colors and can be personalized to create a unique set, designed to accompany your child throughout the school year.
