Uniforms, stationery, fees — the list keeps growing, and for many families, back-to-school time comes with real financial pressure.

In this episode of Humm’s The Breakfast Show with Vijay and Pooja, we revisit our on-air discussion on the rising cost of sending children to school in New Zealand. We talk about uniforms, stationery, and other common expenses, and highlight what the Commerce Commission says about fairness and competition, including concerns around exclusive supply arrangements.

A timely and informative listen for parents, caregivers, and anyone interested in how school-related costs affect Kiwi households.
